Demanding the intervention of the government, K N Balagopal (CPI-M) claimed thousands of employees have been thrown out in the TCS and it seemed there was no grievance redressal mechanism for them in the IT sector.
"Employees face a bleak future. This is not only in TCS. This is not only in IT," he said adding that this was being done by "all new-generation employers".
Balagopal said even after the District Labour Office of Tiruchi issued a notice to the company on the matter, no one from TCS appeared.
Noting that such termination is "highly inhuman and illegal", he said the government should evolve proper mechanism to address the new generation employers.
