No Work No Pay--Promotion--Doctrine Of 'No Work No Pay' Inapplicable To Employer's Own Wrongful Denial--State Cannot Deny Arrears After Granting Deemed Promotion
The principle of "no work no pay" does not apply where an employee, though willing to work, was kept away from a promotional post due to administrative lapse of the employer. Once retrospective or deemed promotion is granted — acknowledging wrongful denial — the employer cannot deny consequential monetary benefits on the ground that the employee did not actually work on the promotional post. The State cannot take advantage of its own wrong. As a model employer, the State must restore the employee to the financial position he would have occupied but for the wrongful denial of promotion.
