[Resolved]  Artha Health Options — Non Payment of Salary

Address:

Bangalore, Karnataka

NON PAYMENT OF SALARY TO EMPLOYEE- SAHARSH BY ARTHA HEALTH OPTIONS... YOUNG UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE BEING CHEATED BY JOB OPPORTUNITY, MADE TO WORK HARD & AT LAST THEIR HARD LABOR IS DENIED FOR BEING COMPENSATED BY SALARY.


1. Mr. Saharsh worked with ARTHA HEALTH OPTIONS as an Employee in the position of Customer Sales Representative for the duration 7th Sep2009 to 13th Oct 2009. After he worked for over a month with utmost dedication, vigor and love for the first job, the Compensation & Salary released to him by an Axis Bank Cheque (No. 248139), was stopped by Artha WITHOUT ANY PRIOR INFORMATION - verbal/written/fax/email, leave apart justifiable or valid reasons for doing so. Pls note that this Salary-cheque was stopped for payment which was released to him AFTER he has completed his dedicated labor over the month.
2. Having worked with Artha Health Options for more than a month, Mr. Saharsh kept his Supervisor/Leads- Mr Salim and Jijesh informed in Oct first week - that he has been offered a role by another company & would like to be relieved.

3. Submitted Resignation Letter in person to HR & Supervisors- Miss Lidya Peterson, Mr Salim, Mr Jijesh on 13th Oct09. However, he was made to wait for more than 2hrs just for the submission of a letter. The Resignation Letter was accepted by above Artha Officials.

4. While I took this matter to HR over phone, Artha Reception did not allowed to speak to HR & I was routed to Mr Shaji, and was called upon by him at Artha's Nrupathunga Road Office, along with Mr. Saharsh to discuss on this, despite the fact stated that Saharsh has moved out of Bangalore & no longer stays at Bangalore. As a result, Saharsh had to travel to Bangalore all the way from another city

5. Our visit to Artha Office on invitation by Artha along with Saharsh on 12th Feb turned out to be the worst Experience & Surprise, considering the way Artha treated. First, we were not allowed to meet HR despite the fact I was called upon & invited there by Artha officials. Further, on rejection of Salary release to Mr Saharsh by HR representative Miss Lidya Peterson, my persistent Requests & a mere 10min meeting-time request was turned down by an immature act of banging the phone with comments like- She would not like to discuss Saharsh’s salary issues with me, no matter I am his parent & there is nothing to discuss about. My impressions to this behavior goes as “INHUMAN” and an “AUTOCRACY”. I am also surprised that such sensitive roles are entrusted to people who don’t carry courteousness & care for the people’s emotions, leave apart taking care of their employees.

At the outset, I would like to reiterate that the Salary stopped by Artha was Saharsh’s First Salary out of his first Job. Not sure whether Artha has made an attempt to realize the damage done to Saharsh out of this Incident and whether your HR understands the importance & Emotions attached with the First Salary of an Employee.

Worst- On speaking further to Artha's Head- Mr Anil- he has denied any Payment now. No Reasons stated. He has no reasons as why Artha released the Salary cheque & then stopped. This is going to be taken up further through Labor Laws, if not attended by Artha & Salary not released.

Below complaints showcase the Attitude of Artha & its history of dealing with People:
