As per my understanding, Form-16 can be downloaded from TRACES site only by the Employer and not the Employee.

So Employees are at the mercy of the Employer for getting Form-16. Employer has to get it from TRACES then issue the same to the Employee.

However, the information in Form-16 is supposed to be available [hopefully without any mistake] in the AIS for the Employee, so you can try that route.
