Employer claiming 2 months notice pay and denying rel letter

Hi, My notice period when I resigned was 3 months. However, I had asked for an early relieving of 1 month after resignation date. My employer agreed to reduce notice period by 1 month only and issued a letter to me that my contractual end date and last working day would be 2 months after my resignation date. However, during my conversation with management, my director had also given me threats of dismissal. I was very much concerned and since I did not have much responsibilities at work, I approached the MD for early reliving. He agreed to cut my notice period to 1 month after resignation date. In accordance with this, HR issued another letter to me stating my last day of working and last day of employment both to be 1 month after resignation date. I served till this date, completed all exit formalities and left. Now, the employer has sent me FNF in which they are asking me to pay 2 months notice pay , have withheld my final salary and not giving releiving letter after repeated reminders.

if you have met all the formalities and conditions of relieving and sitll made go through this, you can very well approach a LABOUR COURT.

Will it take quite long to get the dues and service documents through labour court.. also, is everyone entitled to approach labour court or is it applicable only for people who earn wages below a certain level?

But Some times what happend the Employer also makes False allegation against the employee , just to threated him , In that Case what needs to be done

In Labour Court the matters go on stretching and no final results are received within Time

While posting such queries employee should post basic information!

How many persons are employed in it?

What is your designation and nature of duties?

How many persons report to you?

Do you have any power to sanction leave/increment/appoint/terminate/appraise etc etc ?

You are in which state? Since how many months you are working?

Do standing orders (model/certified) apply to establishment and your designation?

What is notice period as per appointment letter/offer letter and what was notice period tendered by you?

Was ever any stinker, memo, show cause notice on any misconduct issued to you?

Are you a member of employee’s/trade unions?

Has the establishment issued/supplied, salary slips of all months, PF number and a/c slips of all years, ESIC card, Form16, acknowledgment of handover of charge/assets, NOC/NDC etc etc, acceptance of notice of resignation/final resignation?

Can you attach the copy of appointment letter, notice of resignation tendered by you,1st letter issued to you reducing the notice period by 1 month, 2nd letter issued to you reducing the notice period by another 1 month, FnF statement...

You may erase the names,logo etc to maintain the confidentiality.

What is good in your posts is that you approached 1st authority then 2nd authority i.e. MD and got waiver of notice period.

You may apply your skills and get waiver properly inserted in FnF sttaement/settlement and get a copy fo correct FnF statement.

The notice period of 90days may not be neccessarily applicable in your case.

Designation and wages alone does not decide if employee shall be covered as 'Workman' as in ID Act or not......................

You may serve a Notice on the Employer to honour their commitments.

Kumar Doab (FIN) 15 July 2017

Probably attornies of employer in HR/Director are not in your favor...

On your specific request notice period has been reduced with recovery of notice pay...

The language as in docs can clarify.

Kumar Doab (FIN) 15 July 2017

It is very much possible that even if notice period of 90days is inserted in appointment letter it is not applicable in your case.
