Investigation into the Death Case Due to Work Pressure at EY

 

The Ministry of Labour and Employment is investigating the death of Anna Sebastian Perayil, a 26-year-old CA (Chartered Accountant) working at Ernst & Young (EY) India. Allegations have surfaced that Anna's death was caused by excessive work pressure.

Minister of State for Labour, Shobha Karandlaje, acknowledged the situation on social media, describing the work environment as unsafe and exploitative. The ministry has taken the complaint seriously and launched an investigation into the allegations of an unsafe and oppressive work environment.

Although the company has denied the claim, stating that Anna's death was due to personal reasons unrelated to work pressure, the investigation continues.
