Pls someone help me in taking a desicion. I'm a PCC student. I'm totally confused about thinking my articleship trainig. i've joined my training period from 15th Oct 2008. I shall be completing the same as on 15th April 2012. (ie, 4mths n 5 days is remained for completion.)
Now my problem is with my working hours, leave & my stipend. My working hours is from 9.30am to 5.00pm, 15minutes or half hour we take break as lunch time (ie, working time - 7 hrs) and none other leisure time. the office is from Monday to Saturday (ie, 6days)
Total working hours in a week = 6 days * 7 hours = 42 hrs / week.
He gives a cheque as stipend, as per our ICAI regulation of in every 4 / 6 mths, as per his discretion. And he is not regular in his payment.
As per the articleship regulations we have 1/6 of leave for the worked days & we can tak leave for excess working hours in a week (ie, if we work more than 35 hrs in a week). Still now i've taken only 1/4th of leave for my working hours & no leave for any excess hours. He does'nt gives me leave. What shall i do. Now i'm forced to think about discontinuing / terminating my articleship.
But as per rules there is no provision for termination in our last year of training period. Then the only way is of thinking discontinuance. I've not yet cleared my Intermediate both groups. and before taking any step we have to get confirmation from institue & such letter of confirmation should be signed by our principal, which, i think he will not.
Now can anyone help me in this regards, what i shall do in this regards. Whether i should continue the training or not, then wht are the step that i shall have to take. i'm very upset. All the previous articles were forced to continue the office for 1 month after their completion period.I've already done 15 days excess works before my articleship in this office.
Can anyone suggest me with their valuable informations regarding the above matters. Hope there will be someone.................... Pls help
with prayers
