Hi,
I am unable to come to the office due to suffering from Koch's spine for the last 3 months. Currently, I am undergoing treatment as advised by the doctor, and a maximum of 5 months of bed rest is required according to the doctor's advice. However, my department head has asked me to join next week or I will lose my job. Since my job is important to me, please advise on the rules and help me draft a letter.
Regards,
Palkesh

Your case is a medical case. In case you are covered under ESI, the payment of the salary will be the responsibility of the ESIC, without any financial burden on your employer. In case you are not covered under ESI, you are entitled to all types of leaves to your credit and also the "Leave without Pay".
In case you are medically unfit to resume your duties, your employer cannot force you to work. You may produce a Medical Certificate to your employer regarding your condition and medical advice.
If your employer takes any suo-moto action to terminate your services, your case will be under the Industrial Disputes Act and take the refuge of the Labour Inspector.

Dear pal,
Please tell your department head to have some patience and courtesy regarding medical issues. Also, please submit a brief medical report to your department head. If possible, ask a colleague to collect it from you and then have them deliver it to your department head. Remember, they cannot remove you abruptly. Follow the advice given by Surendra.
Thank you.
