An Indian Nurse troubled in Qatar due to the negligence of the HR officials of a private hospital in Delhi, gets relief after the intervention of Pravasi Legal Cell.

Sunu Skaria was a former nurse of Max Super Speciality Hospital, Delhi. He later joined a new firm in Qatar and, along with other documents, submitted there an experience certificate issued by the Delhi Hospital as well.

His troubles began when Dataflow, an international verification agency, contacted the hospital for verifying the genunity of his work experience certificate and the hospital officials erroneously reported that it was not issued by them.

On receiving this report from the previous employer, the new office issued Sunu with a show cause notice. He immediately contacted the hospital management with proper documents, but the hospital refused to entertain his plea and to rectify the error.

Forging of documents for employment is considered a serious crime and this can be a reason for lose of employment, imprisonment, and even for being blacklisted from employment in other foreign countries. Though he approached the hospital by explaining these threats to his life and livelihood, and even made a representation to the Indian Mission in Qatar, nothing worked to his benefit.

Finally, he approached Pravasi Legal Cell and sent a legal notice through Adv. Jose Abraham, President, Pravasi Legal Cell, categorically stating that the hospital will solely be responsible for any damage that he suffers due to the laxity of its officials.

Subsequently, the hospital responded to the legal notice by acknowledging that he was a former employee of the hospital and issued a fresh work experience certificate. Now, having verification of certificates successfully completed by Dataflow, Sunu is confirmed in the job and is working with the new employer without any threat or legal trouble.
