Facing Issues with Full and Final Settlement After Resignation: What Should I Do?

Can anybody help me with the full and final process? I recently resigned from my position of Sr. HR Executive on health grounds. However, when I asked for my Full and Final settlement (FNF), they denied giving me my 15 days' salary. They stated that in the full and final settlement, all the leaves and half-days I had taken from the date of joining would be deducted, as they hadn't deducted any leaves in between. This is the basis on which they are providing my salary.

Kindly suggest what action I should take against them.

Please check whether the leaves taken by you were paid for but not deducted from your leave balance. Is this correct? If so, what is the issue? This should be verified by you first and implemented by both you and your company in a professional manner.

Best wishes,

White-collared cheating and gratuity laws

This is another example of white-collared cheating that can even affect upper cadre employees by the company. There is a law regarding the payment of gratuity for employees who have completed five years, irrespective of leaves saved in their account. Gratuity inclusion in your final and full settlement may not be known. It is preferred to file a case in a nearby labor authority court regarding your grievance. Regardless of your salary scale, both parties will receive a notice to attend a joint meeting on a specific date where you will learn the facts of your final and full settlement payment. Please remember that your leave credit should not be a concern for your final and full settlement. At least one month's salary for each year of service is a must, followed by other entitlements such as a yearly bonus, leave encashment, etc. Please proceed accordingly.

Ok, sir.
