Resigned During Probation: Can My Company Legally Hold My Salary or Take Action?

Prashanjeet
Hi, I am Prashanjeet. I have a question. I resigned during the probation period. Does the company have the right to take legal action against me?

Also, the company is holding my salary. Are there any rules that can help me clear my salary with the company?

Hi, there is nothing wrong with submitting a resignation during the probation period. But the question is, are you serving a notice period after submitting your resignation, or did you just abscond without providing any information?

If you follow the proper notice period clause, the employer won't pursue legal action. However, if you absconded without informing, the employer might proceed with disciplinary action and also withhold your salary.
