Respected seniors,
Kindly help me with your expertise on the Notice period extension issue:
Recently we have carried out an exercise to identify ‘Key Resources’ of the company. The Management after careful evaluation has decided to revise the notice period of Key resources from one month to three months keeping in view their criticality and business continuity if in case they leave.
However the Management also want to keep one more clause to it that “in the event of termination of employment by the staff the company may accept a shorter period of Notice period in its absolute discretion should the company be able to fill the position"
The issue is that their original notice period was 1 month. Is it legally fine to extend the notice period of a staff from one month to three months? Does the employer have the right to impose this decision which I sincerely doubt as the terms of employment are to be mutually agreed? Our Company is located in Noida. Does the UP shop establishment act refrains us from extending the NP?
Also that few of the staff has objected to this decision. Can you please guide how this can be implemented?
Kindly provide your inputs at the earliest.
