Termination - Resignation Letter

My boss asked me resignation and when I denied he said you are terminated. I have not signed the termination letter copy given to me. But now they are not allowing me into office. I\'m afraid if I am not allowed in office it\'ll reflect as my absenteeism and they might terminate on absconding reason. How do I know whether I\'m terminated or not? How could I convince them to let me mark my attendance?

Dear,
Please ask to your boss why he want to ask you resign/termination. During termination what reason he mentioned in termination letter?
If you are agree with the reason than sign on that and take your all dues otherwise approach to senior management.
Thanks

Hi,
Your employer cannot terminate just like that he/she should give proper notice and has to specify the reason for termination. Now you may contact your employer through call or mail ask him/her the reason for termination. They have no rights to block your unless your are properly relived, go to your work place and if they won't allow you ask them to put it in a written statement. This kind of behaviour is a kind of unfair labour practice so you can take this to the appropriate authority for your establishment.

Hello Anandmahindrakar,
Your Posting gives the impression that everything happened 'just-like-that' without any background..............which is NOT palatable AND leads to view your posting with suspicion of half-truths.
Pl give details of WHAT happened BEFORE your boss asked for your resignation leading to whatever happened subsequently.

Dear TS,
Thanks for reply and query!
The organization is a private life insurance company and the background of this situation is not meeting probation targets / score.
There is a clause in offer letter that if employee fails to meet the targets the employer can terminate.
If you need any more info, kindly inform.
One more query to you n all, is it difficult for a terminated employee to get next job?
Warm regards,

Hello Anand Mahindrakar,
You ought to have given this piece of info earlier itself.
Coming to the issue, when it's clearly stated in the Offer about the consequences of not meeting the targets, why are you surprised when you were terminated due to this?
But looks like you went on an ego trip when you were asked to resign. At least the Relieving Letter would NOT have the termination as the reason for this separation.
To answer your query "is it difficult for a terminated employee to get next job?", the short answer is.....Yes.
Coming to the options open to you:
1] You can go back to the Company & ask for one more chance to show your performance. Don't expect them to lay the red carpet for you....for all you know, you MAY have to cajole, request profusely, etc.
2] You can go back to the Company & request for changing the content in the Experience/Relieving Letters you got. Here too, pl don't expect them to agree right away.
3] You didn't mention how long you worked here. IF it isn't for long, you may chose to skip this experience & look-out for new jobs........be clear on how you wish to cover this gap in your career during I/Vs.
All the Best.

Hello TS,
Thanks for revert and mentioning various options open for me!
But I haven't acknowledged termination letter copy which came on my boss's mail id (not mine). Also I have not received 15 days notice pay which is mentioned in offer letter in case terminated by organisation.
They are making me 'feel' that I'm terminated. My online attendence is 'on' till 2-3 days but they r not allowing me in office and hence it'll make me absconding and then they could terminate me on that grounds.
The operations guys are not having anyanything in written that I should not allowed in office.
Do I have option to go to labour commissioner / labour court?
Regards
Anand

Dear Anand,

To answer your question, "Do I have option to go the labour commissioner / labour court?". - Yes you have that option open.

But do you have proof that they did not allow you in the office, as you already said, that the online attendance is still live, so you are anyways marking the attendance, but as there will be no corresponding work, they can still terminate you.

Also if the offer letter clearly mentions that you can be terminated if you fail to meet the assigned targets, which i presume have not been met and as you have already signed that letter, what can you challenge in the Labour Court.

In regards to the F&F, they still have time to do so as it has to be done within 30 days.

So You can approach any court, but what can you prove in that court, plus the decision will be pending till the case is heard, which will take around 3 - 4 years to clear, so you can wait till that time and also try explaining any prospective employer, that you will require leaves to attend the labour court, as there is a case you have filed... You selection itself will be a question mark.

My suggestion:- Forget the Ego... Speak with the management, and resolve it amicably.

Dear Ashutosh hi,
Thanks for understanding and reply!
I think management only seeks my resignation.
I don't have it in writing that they didn't allowed me to attend office as they only verbally pressuring me and not allowing me in office.
And if it'll take 3-4 years for labour court case then its better that I resign.
Regards
Anand
