GCK
I had resigned from my job and notice period is 1 month. I have attended office for 1 week. The company has stopped assigning me any work. I want to pay compensation to the company for the balance notice period and leave the organization. My employment agreement says that employment can be terminated from either side with serving 1 month notice period or payment of compensation for the same period.
The company is saying that they do not want to any work further, but they will not relieve before end of notice period. I think making an employee sit idle for such a long time is harassment.
Can the company legally bind me to serve notice period and attend office daily even if I I am ready to compensate the company, and the company is not assigning any work?

Siva,
The attitude of seniors has changed a lot since my resignation. My GM has said that they dont want me to leave organization as I was a very good worker. So, they wont relieve me so that I loose my future options and forcefully have to stay back.
And, I actually have some offers which I may loose if I stay to serve notice period. I would still have served full notice period if the company needed me to complete some KT etc. But, I cannot sit idle for so long. I would instead like to pay compensation to company, take a break and spend a few days with my family as I recently got married. Then I want to join another company.

Hi
I understand your predicament But you got manage getting relieved smoothly. Wait for four or five days and then approach You may get a positive response
It is the normal practice in many companies to put pressure like this during the first week of resignation as they cant accept the reality
Once they digest the reality,they will take the right decision

Hi Siva
I agree with Sivakaran .Approach managment after a few days,maybe by then they would be more flexible to accept your resignation
Meanwhile you can explain the entire situation to your prospective employer and bargain for some more time to join
All the best
Thanks and Regards

be a positive thinking friends, it's mean that you have to transfer your knowledge to others . Practically the company is right cause its better if you only just sit in your area/ desk but beside that it's mean that you have to transfer your ability , works before , and what yours skill have.
thank you

Hi,
In a way you are lucky. They have agreed to relieve you. There are some companies who trouble without giving/delayed relieving etc.,
It is good practice to handover properly and leave.
Even the present employer needs to test whether they can run the show without you.
Be calm and relaxed. It is bit unique phase. Take it positively

Dear, You have signed a employment contract ,so u r bound by it to complete ur term of notice period.It is better to part ways in a pleasant way than create bad vibes,after all u have worked for them & with them.Be patient and ask to be releived ,they have been nice to u by saying u will be releived after notice period so stick on for a few days more ,it definitely will be worthwhile.Part on a positive note,it is good for both. :) regards,RGS.
