Facing Issues with PF and Leave Encashment After Resignation – Need Advice on CBSE Laws

Shaikh Tazeen Salim
I am working at XXX School, Nasik, as a teacher. During joining, they provided me with an offer letter stating a fixed stipend of 7500 with no benefits, but I received a salary of 6600 with PF deduction for many months. After appraisal, they were supposed to promote me to a regular teacher position, but instead, they appointed me as an ad hoc assistant teacher. When I reported this to the management, they acknowledged their mistake and assured me they would rectify it. However, they mentioned that I would not be given what was originally promised. Subsequently, I resigned with a one-month notice period. Now, they are refusing to provide me with my PF and leave encashment as per CBSE laws. Please advise me on the relevant CBSE laws and how I can obtain my full and final settlement. My experience in the organization amounts to 9 months.

Thank you.

You could probably put up a written complaint to the District Education Officer. PF accumulations cannot be held back by the school. What the contract says and what you received are different, which means a breach of contract. Breach of contract has civil remedies. You can consider putting the whole thing in writing to the school, and if there is still no redressal, consult an advocate for a suitable legal remedy.
