Labour laws doesn't speak about the notice period when an employee resigns from the job. But it asks you to follow the appointment order clauses / employment standing orders accepted by you while joining the establishment.

Dear Ankit, The labour law does not govern Notice period clause, It is upon individual companies. You will have to actually serve the Notice period that you agreed in your offer letter . Yes it can be negotiated but the final word is as per the company itself. This is as per best of my understanding.

In absent of the standing order or the clause in the Appointment Letter, the Factory Act says that the notice period is 30 days. So, if your company standing order or the appointment letter says anything other than 30 days, it is totally valid.

As per our BLA - 2006, If employees is under probation period no notice period is required for separation. A management grade employee may however, resign from service by serving notice less than 60 days. In that case company will deduct 60 days gross salary from his final dues in lieu of notice period. Also In case of non-management grade employee, 60 days gross salary will be deducted from his/her final dues in lieu of notice period

NOTICE PERIOD.

==============

Reasonable & Justifiable service conditions can be put in Service Rules like S.O., or Apptt.orders. Some Management puts 3-6 months Notice Period which creates problems for themselves & also for new Candidates to join duty. Arbitrary clauses leads to abuses & embarassment. The new candidate will have to abscond to join new Co.which asks for immediate joining while; it stipulates 3-6 months notice for those leaving the Co..

Normal Notice period can be 1 month upto officers/ Engrs. & 2 months for Managers/HODs & above. in other cases; it can be as per the situation where Bond, Foreign training etc., are involved. Cos. wanting to detain candidates; cannot stop his freedom of choice & growth prospects. Courts are already filled with lakhs of civil cases. Now; due to employment related cases; employees have to agitate & runs to Courts on small issues like Relieving due to Notice period. Some flexibility & understanding on the part of Management can reduce this problems.
