Hi Folks,
I have a query regarding the notice period when an employee resigns. An employee working as a Web developer from past 13 months with us. He submitted his resignation on 28th of February. Since he is the only person working as a web designer and carrying out ongoing projects in the organization, therefore, the employer wants him to serve two months of notice to recruit and knowledge transfer to another person for the same post. However, in the employment contract, the minimum notice mentioned is 30 days.
So is it illegal on an employer's part to ask for 60 days of notice depending on the situation?
Please help me out here.
Thanks in advance
