Notice period

Ravinder reddy K (Querist) 30 August 2011 This query is : Resolved
Hi,
i am working in IT staffing and Software development company. When i joined with them notice period is 30days or can pay basic salary of one month as per my appointment order. Recently they revised the HR policies and it was mentioned 60days as notice period, Revised HR policies were not informed in person to the employees rather they kept in a sharing folder and shared the path.
Do I need to serve 60 days notice period or can i go as per my appointment order.
I communicated to my new employer it's 30 days as per my offer letter and they are insisting me to join in 30 days, not accepting 60 days. Please suggest me what to do.

if your appointment letter mentions 30 days then you have to give 30 days notice . subseqent changes in policy changing notice period to 60 days if not accepted by you is not binding

As the revised policy has not been circulated or been signed by employees including you so that is not in operation at least against you.

Dear Ravinder,

Your mention that "they kept in a sharing folder and shared the path" reveals that the management cirdulated the amended provision through transferring forlder from hand to hand of the employees. If you have noted the amended provision and put your initials or they have kept the record of having sent the folder to you on any date for noting, but you have not objected to that, the amended clause can be deemed to have been accfepted by you unless you prove otherwise. In that case you would have to abide by the ammended clause.

In fact normally such type of clandestine tactics are adopted by the management that prove indirect acceptance of policies by the employees.
