Dear All,
Hope everyone is safe and vaccinated.
Am working for a well known MNC company. Joined on September 1st 2021. Due to some personal issues and career preferences i have submitted my resignation on 28th October 2021. Regarding notice period, below is the clause mentioned in the offer letter.
" Notice Period:
Upon your confirmation, this contract of employment is terminable by you by giving 90 days notice in writing to Company. It is clearly understood, agreed and made abundantly clear that you shall have to necessarily work during the period of notice of 90 days given by you under this clause. However, upon your serving the notice under this clause, Company may relieve you any time during the period of notice at its sole discretion. Upon your , this contract of employment may be terminated by Company by giving you 90 days notice or payment in lieu thereof. It is understood, agreed and made abundantly clear herein that you shall have to necessarily work during the notice period given by company under this clause, unless you are otherwise relieved by company by giving you payment in lieu of notice.Your failure to comply with this clause will entail monetary payment of damages to company as may be determined by it at its own discretion having regard to the responsibilities shouldered by you while being in the employment of company.
"
On the day i resigned am still on probation period and not a confirmed employee with the organization but the HR is saying, you need to serve 3 months. I feel that information is not given in the offer letter, the clause they mentioned is applicable for a confirmed employee.
So, please let me know if its legal if i say them that i will bound to my offer letter and serve only one month as am still not a confirmed employee. And also let me know if absconding is the right way if in case they still don't accept my request for relieving in one month.
Regards.
