Hi,
I'm working for an IT company that has a 3-month notice period for resigning. I submitted my resignation on the 21st of Jan '08 and plan to serve for 1 1/2 months. I have 25 privileged leaves and I am willing to pay for the remaining days of my 3-month notice period. However, my boss refuses to release me at this time. This is because my team lead departed just two weeks ago, and another person (X) on the project has also submitted their resignation. Despite the completion of the notice period in April, this other person (X) has agreed to stay until June, leading my boss to request that I also continue my service until June.
I urgently need to be released by the end of February as the new company I am set to join requires my presence by then. I have been persistently requesting my boss to release me by the end of February. Can the company prevent me from leaving within 1 1/2 months if I have fulfilled all the official requirements? Is it mandatory to serve the full 90-day notice period?
Thank you.
