Dear All,
While I had opted to serve complete notice period of 60 days on the company eExit tool, I was given a relieving date 30 days from the date of my resignation.
Please note that I did not ask for a notice period waiver at any point in time.
While I was being relieved early my manager told me that I will be paid for complete 60 days of period and that he has discussed it with HR.
However, I got paid only for 30days as my reliving date was set for 30 days from my resignation instead of 60 days.
Also for your reference here is what my appointment letter said about the notice period/relieving:
"Notice Period / Pay: During the period of probation, your services may be terminated by either party giving the other one (1) month notice or Basic Salary in lieu thereof. After confirmation and thereafter, your services may be terminated by either party giving two (2) month's notice or Basic Salary Cash in lieu thereof. The management however, reserves the right to (i) Waive the applicable notice and relieve you immediately upon paying you the Basic salary in lieu of the said notice period or (ii) Insist that you serve the company during the notice period in full or in part thereof, instead of accepting from you, salary in lieu of the said notice period."
I need your legal/HR expertise to help me understand the point# (2) (i) & (ii) as above and figure out if it supports me if:
- I claim compensation for the remaining 30 days of my notice period that I could not serve owing to the part waiver (without having asked for any waiver)?
Please note, I have not joined any other job yet and this is not a matter of greed but, simply fighting a system if I have been wronged or misled ..
I will be grateful for your valuable and sound advice on my future course of action.
- Thanks.
