I joined an event company as a designer two months ago and am currently in a probationary period for six months. During my interview, I informed HR that I would not be able to provide overtime beyond my working hours due to certain conditions at home. Despite this, I am regularly required to work overtime for 1.5 to 3 hours without any extra payment. The company policy states that employee working hours are from 10 AM to 6:30 PM, but my shift often extends beyond these hours without additional pay.
I have informed HR that I cannot continue under these conditions and have offered my resignation. However, the management has threatened to withhold my entire December salary if I resign without serving a notice period. Can they legally do this? What legal action can I take if my salary is withheld?
Thanks in advance.
