#Wage Entitlement

Bombay HC rules that part-time community health volunteers are employees under the Minimum Wages Act and must receive statutory minimum wages.

Bombay High Court rules that employers committing unfair labour practices by withholding work without valid cause must compensate employees with full wages, reinforcing worker protections under the MRTU & PULP Act. The judgment underscores that wage entitlement persists even when employees are ready and willing to work, holding employers strictly liable for arbitrary work denial.
