UI have been working in an IT company for the past three years in a hybrid work model. Recently, the company changed its policy, requiring employees to work from the office. I had been going in regularly, but from mid-February, my workload increased significantly. Due to the pressure and long hours, I found it difficult to commute and started working from home instead.
Despite working odd hours, including weekends, and delivering all my tasks on schedule, HR is now saying that because I didn’t physically report to the office, my last month’s salary will be marked as **loss of pay.**
I had **marked my attendance as WFH**, and my **manager approved it**, so this decision seems unfair.
Can they legally withhold my salary for this?
How should I approach this situation?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. -
SWithout knowing the rules it’s impossible to comment.
If WFH was disallowed, it’s disallowed. If attendance is based on signing in at X location, non singing will mean absence.
Is the manager allowed to approve WFH ? He may not as per regulations have the authority to grant it.
It’s also possible that HR wants to clamp down on WFH and you’re the sacrificial lamb.

PWhy not go office and cut your working time. Normal stating the same reasons ? Whywork on weekends too if not getting overpaid

UNot even remotely related to what I asked but thanks this has to be the most helpful comment.
You should be proud of yourself.

AThis is the corporate world. The new age slavery. You chose to bend a bit and they will make you kneel and crawl. Up to you how you want to take the feedback.
Coming to your issue, your line of argument should be your manager approved the WFH arrangement, not how long you slogged.

UThanks. You could have begun with this.
And I completely agree, you give them finger they’ll grab your neck, but I was leading our team’s work for this product, so yeah I went a bit beyond and if I am being honest I don’t regret that.
I am not regretting rather pissed about this asspull and yeah my core argument is the fact that I worked and I have approved WFH from my manager, but just adding it just for additional measures.
