Employment Termination During Covid

Summary

There have been cases in India related to termination of employment during COVID-19. The Government of India issued an advisory asking employers not to terminate employees or reduce wages. However, this is an advisory and not a statutory rule, so its enforceability is uncertain. The concept of termination of employment is defined under Section 2(oo) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Section 25M defines conditions for retrenchment, and Section 25C refers to the right of a workman who has been laid off. The Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 aims to ensure financial security for employees but does not specifically address termination without terminal benefits.
