Hi everyone,
Could you please suggest to me what to do if a manager suddenly announces that the appraisal period is increased from 6 months to 1 year? In the second case, if a manager says that the notice period for leaving is increased from 1 month to 3 months, i.e., an employee has to give prior 3 months' notice instead of 1 month before leaving. In that case, how can we convince the employees to adapt to these situations?
Thank you.

Is it Lala's Dukaan or Company? If it is Lala's Dukan, then anything could happen!!! If it is a company, then all the above-mentioned matters should be in writing with acknowledgment from all the employees!!!

Hi, I have reviewed your input and made corrections for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors. I have also adjusted the paragraph formatting for better readability:
Please go through Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act (For Worker Category), and you will get the answer. I will save time and efforts herewith.
For staff and managerial positions, if the party does not consent (preferably in writing) to changes in the contract, then the changes are not enforceable to such party.
Please feel free to ask in case of further clarification.
9A. Notice of Change
No employer who proposes to effect any change in the conditions of service applicable to any workman in respect of any matter specified in the Fourth Schedule shall effect such change:
(a) Without giving to the workmen likely to be affected by such change a notice in the prescribed manner of the nature of the change proposed to be effected; or
(b) Within twenty-one days of giving such notice.
Provided that no notice shall be required for effecting any such change:
(a) Where the change is effected in pursuance of any settlement or award; or
(b) Where the workmen likely to be affected by the change are persons to whom the Fundamental and Supplementary Rules, Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, Civil Services (Temporary Service) Rules, Revised Leave Rules, Civil Service Regulations, Civilians in Defence Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, or the Indian Railway Establishment Code, or any other rules or regulations that may be notified in this behalf by the appropriate Government in the Official Gazette, apply.

Hi Manpreet,
Mr. Prashant Ingawale has very well laid out the procedure that is required to be followed by an employer regarding the notice of change. It will definitely help you better understand the criteria and develop your answer. In addition to this, I also want to add that as far as convincing employees about the proposed increase in the appraisal period is concerned, they can be assured monthly or bi-monthly meetings with their immediate superior (boss, supervisor, or manager) so that they keep getting informal and periodic reviews of their performance and thus make improvements accordingly. These informal meetings can also serve as a platform for employees to provide their feedback about company operations and resources that are needed to perform their respective jobs better.
Often, companies conduct performance reviews annually to save time and money on the entire procedure, but such short-periodic meetings not only make the employees feel involved, but also help enhance subordinate-superior relationships.
Hope this helps. Also, when confronted with such questions, you can visualize yourself as an employee and try to figure out what would satisfy you if you were one of those affected employees...
