Hi All.
Please help me to understand if there is any specific response time for show cause notice as per law.
Generally we mention 48 hours in the charge sheet.If the employee fails to respond in 48hrs from the time of receipt of the charge sheet with his explanation as to why disciplinary action should not be taken against him/her,we take actions.
Requested to clarify if there is any law mentioning a specific time period for response in the charge sheet/show cause notice..
Thanks,

Dear Rejina
1. There is no provision of Show Cause notice in any law so the question of time frame does not arise.
2. You can provide the same time frame that you use for charge-sheet when you are issuing show-cause notice as the law does not prescribe any time frame for giving response.
3. Further to meet the needs of natural justice it is suggested that a time frame of at least 48 to 72 hours is given to the workmen.
