I had retired from service in August 2023. Now, I have some incomplete paperwork from my service period. I also admitted the mistakes in writing to the management and completed most of them. However, I still have some incomplete paperwork from before my retirement. I have received all my dues from the company.
Now, my questions are:
1) Can the company take legal action against me for my incomplete paperwork, considering my written admission of mistakes?
2) Please also specify the time period during which the company can take legal action against me.

Post-Employment Agreements and Benefits
There cannot be an agreement that will extend beyond employment unless any post-retirement remuneration is offered to the employee. In government service, the payment of a pension will justify the extension of some benefits beyond the termination of the contract of employment. However, in private service, there is no such bonding, and once the contract of employment is terminated, including due to retirement, the employee-employer relationship ends, with no benefits flowing thereafter.
The pension from the EPF is not a gift from the employer; rather, it is a statutory payment for contributions to a fund for a certain number of years (ten years and above). Therefore, it cannot be considered as a consideration against which the employee can be asked to do certain things. Of course, if the employer wishes to have tasks completed, they can re-employ the individual for another term, such as six months, to finish the work by paying an agreed-upon salary amount.
