A worker who served the company for 5 years, he transferred from the Jigani plant to the Luckenahalli plant and got thrown out just by verbal saying. The management had not met them but the police were called for him. Laborers are saying that police had taken photographs and it is linked with the current cut-off. 60 of the sacked employees are women. They completed their training throw ITI, some have a diploma in electrical engineering.

HR at the Yazaki plant said that we dismissed laborers after arguing with them. We had recruited them under the Apprenticeship Act. , we trained them but it was clear that we can remove them anytime. Now some political connections came into it so the issue is flaming.

On the question of the termination notice, the HR head said that it was not required at all.

But workers believe that because of the management changes it all happened to them.
