Hello, I am seeking advice. I recently sent a 2-month notice of resignation as per the standard guidelines of my confirmation letter. To date, I have not received any acceptance of the resignation letter from my employer. Furthermore, my superior has requested me to hand all relevant files, etc., pertaining to the HR of the company, including my access card and keys to my room, and requested me to leave the organization.
My question is: as I have been requested to leave the organization, is the company not bound to pay my 2-month salary on the day I was asked to leave the organization? If so, can I seek redress from the labor department? I am from Malaysia.
Thank you, Mohana

Dear Ms. Mohana,
Yes, the company is very well bound to its terms to pay you your notice in lieu thereof. Besides, there are some omitted points in your post. Let us know to take the best advice from the Cite Seniors -
- When have you resigned?
- Is there any correspondence email or a letter shared with your superiors?
- Why do you think your employer has not accepted your resignation -- please explain?
- Why do you think that you may not negotiate with the HR from the company rather than approach a labor/conciliation officer?
Every point you inflate is magnified to the possible extent to understand and provide you with the best of this query.

Hi Sharmila,
Thank you for your immediate response. In reply to your questions:
1. Resignation date 18.12.12 - via my official letter which indicated a 2-month notice period as stated in my confirmation letter.
2. I cannot explain why he has yet to reply to accept my resignation.
3. My boss, being the Chief Executive Officer, will not entertain my request because he is a man who will not listen to my reasoning or my issues. He is a man of his own principles and does not like anyone who stands up against him, which I did. The only person I can approach in my organization is the Managing Director. However, if I do this, the Chief Executive Officer will not like it, and he keeps delaying or even goes to the extent of not releasing my salary, as he has done to another staff member whose last day with the company was in September. To date, the Chief Executive Officer refuses to release the staff's September salary.
Thanks,
Mohana

Dear Ms. Mohana,
Please write an email to the Managing Director and await his reply for a day or two. If you do not receive any response, write a letter requesting to be relieved from your duties and send it via registered post with acknowledgment. Whether or not they acknowledge the letter, it will serve as proof that you have communicated your request to the company. You can then contact the local conciliation officer from the labor department in the region where the company is located. Provide the officer with all the details of your correspondence to the employer regarding the delay in releasing you from your duties. The labor officer will assist in resolving your concerns.
Thank you.
