Termination During PIP: Are We Obligated to Offer Extra Compensation Beyond Salary?

Dear Reader, I wanted to inquire if an employee is terminated due to a PIP, are we liable to give any excess compensation apart from pending salary and EL during FNF?

Hi, Wherever possible, try to give one month's notice or one month's notice pay.

Dear Citehr Member Mr. Shivang,

Kindly refer to the Terms & Conditions embodied in the appointment letter or the service rules/conditions signed by the employees. It may be stated that termination can be as follows:

1. In the case of all kinds of employees - Without any notice and without assigning any reason in circumstances of grave misconduct where it is not advisable to conduct an internal departmental inquiry.

2. In the case of probationer/temporary employees - With one month's notice (or as per the notice period given in the appointment letter) or salary in lieu of the notice period.

3. In the case of a confirmed/permanent employee - Termination as a penalty if the employee is found guilty of misconduct at the conclusion of departmental inquiry proceedings.

An appropriate decision may be taken by the competent authority/management.

With regards and best wishes,

Regards, Chandra Mani Lal Srivastava
