Hi,
I've submitted my resignation to my current employer and told them that I have received another job offer. I don't like the current organization, but they are threatening me that they will not provide me with a relieving letter, only a dismissal letter. What will be the impact of this on my next employer?

Hi,
Some organizations can become very vindictive. If a resignation letter has been given with due notice, there is no legal ground to refuse acceptance without assigning specific reasons. The reasons could be the refund of advance, return of company materials, documents, files, etc. If there is a written bond, non-compliance with conditions, etc. If none of these impediments are there, and the company is issuing a letter of non-acceptance of resignation and threatening to dismiss you, the best course is to send a reply stating that you have fully complied with the conditions of 'notice' or, in lieu thereof, notice pay and cease to be an employee of the company on and from a particular date.
It should also be conveyed to the employer that if any adverse action is taken against you, you will proceed legally against the employer. (This is just to clarify your legal position.)
There are many cases where employers do not communicate acceptance of resignation or provide an experience certificate. One has to be prepared to forget the employment relationship in such cases.

Hello Nitin,
It is important to know your relations with your bosses in your present job before you tender your resignation. You need to be very humble and down to earth during these periods. You cannot say things like, "I don't like your company" or "you didn't treat me properly," or things like that.
So, request your boss in a nice manner to accept your resignation letter and relieve you as it is an issue of your career. Regarding your future company, if they are very stringent, they can even withdraw the offer letter if you are not able to submit the relieving letter or a copy of your resignation letter being accepted by your boss.
I am sure this will help.
