Notice Period Not Served - Notice Serve

Abhishek_iisc
Hi,
I have joined an organisation and left it in two days of joining because of family reason. I have informed the company HR and submit my resignation on mail. Now the compnay is asking me to serve the notice period or pay the notice perion amount in lieu of that. They have send me the advocate notice.
What I can do in these conditions? Am I bound to serve the notice period?

Hi Abhishek,
Have you signed any joining formalities, which talks about you agreeing to give notice?
If any company has some proof about it and with that document they can sue you.
If nothing was signed then you didn't worry about it.
You clearly explain the reason to the HR and make them to understand your problem and try to solve it with clear communication and also try to talk with senior person if possible.
Thanks
Pallavi.

Dear Abhishek,
At the time of joining, If you have signed and accepted the condition of notice period during the employment then they can claim otherwise not. If you are on probation or temporary then there is no question of claiming of notice period. In this situation there is a need of notice period or you have to pay the salary of notice period or you can settle with the management if they understand your problem.
Have a nice day

Yes I have completed the joining formalities. But I have not withdrawn any salary from them.
I have already send the reply of the notice to them.
I want to know Am I legally bound to serve the notice period. I have left in some days so still this clause, serving notice period, comes in to picture.

Dear All
Normally we do keep a trial or probation period during which either
party can terminate contract without notice period or max one week.
We are surprised that such a clause was not there to begin with and
a contract is signed with notice period of a month or more.
Legal notice is just a tool to frighten employee and it is not modern
HR. Very primitive and very outdated.

Dear,
I would like to ask about your letter of employment i.e. is there any clause to serve one month notice, if not no need of worry and if yes then obviously you will have to pay one month salary.

If you have not given any thing in writing they cant do anything .I am also working as Group HR .Only they can harass you .You give in writing your situation/problem and send this to CEO of your company .

hi
Do not get panic, you have only served for two days, Notice period will come into force only if you are a confirmed(perament) employee of the organisation.Let them go to any forum case will not stand. Since u r an temp employee. Hope u r clear.

If you are on the payroll of the company and have signed paper of agreement then only the company can take legal action. If you have not signed any paper and have left then there is no need to worry. So please go ahead with the job and enjoy your life. There is no company which is going to waste time and money running behind you. If it does then it is not prfessionalism on the part of the company and was better for you to leave such a company at right time.
