Employment Verification: How Do You Prove Your Job Without Pay Slips or Cheques?

Hello Friends, please tell me, what are the proofs of employment apart from an appointment letter, salary slips, and salary cheques, considering salaries are paid in cash?

Employment Proofs Beyond Appointment Letters

Your in and out data (signing in the register/punching, etc.), your PF and ESI contributions, your IP numbers and related data, offer letter, increment/promotion letters issued, your photographs in any company-related functions, emails received from the company, Form 16 issued by the company, etc., are all part of your employment proofs with the company.

Hi Mala, I too have a suggestion for your question. You can request a soft copy from your employer on the company letterhead stating that you have been working here since a specific date, along with your designation. Hope my suggestion helps you.

Do you feel companies rely on written material on letterhead? Actually, for the last 4 months, our salaries have been paid in cash. Before that, we used to receive salaries through cheques. The issue is that during interviews, companies request the last 6 months' bank statements. Please help.

You should insist that your employer provides you with the latest two months' payslips and a relieving letter after you quit the job. These documents play a crucial role when you are joining a new company because most companies hiring experienced individuals require the last two months' salary slips and a relieving letter from your previous employer. If you fail to provide either of these documents, you may be perceived as a fresher.
