Pune, 19th November 2022: The Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES) strongly condemns the unethical and illegal layoffs started by Amazon in India. According to reports, Amazon has started massive layoffs of employees abroad as well as in India. The company has asked people to leave voluntarily.

 

Harpreet Singh Saluja, President (of NITES) said, “As per the provisions of the Industrial Disputes Act the employer cannot, without prior permission from the appropriate government, lay off any employee. Amazon employees who have served for at least a year of continuous service cannot be laid-off unless served a notice three months in advance and prior permission from the appropriate government. The company needs to submit an application to the authorities along with the reasons for such layoffs. Then the appropriate authorities will decide whether the layoff can be permitted or not after hearing both the parties.”

 

Saluja added, “We have submitted a petition and requested the Union Government and the State Labour Authorities to conduct an inquiry regarding the unethical and illegal layoffs email being sent to employees by Amazon.”
