Hi,
I have been working in a company for 2.7 years. The company hired me for the position of Admin Executive. After 3 months, they shifted me to Sales & Administration, where the major part was back-office sales. Then, after a year, they implemented S.A.P. in the organization and handed over the responsibility to set up the SD module. When I actually developed an interest in sales and administration, they shifted me again to the Credit Control section (Recovery). I spoke with my director, but they are insisting that I stay in that department. Eventually, I resigned from the job last month. Now, they have deducted one month's salary. Please suggest if this is the right way for my company to act.

Dear friend,
With your letter, I came to know that they do not like you to work in their concern. But they do not want to say it. So, they shifted you from Admin. Again, they were not satisfied with your work and further shifted you from that department to another, which shows they do not like you. This is a management sign.
Anyhow, you decided to resign and you did. But you should be careful about your one-month notice, and you should work for one month. However, you failed to do so, which gave them the opportunity to recover the one-month notice period. It is correct on their side.
Please do not worry and do not feel this. Try to understand the reason and consider changing your nature of work.

Hi Ambika,
If you decide to resign, you should give one month's notice and work for that duration. If you are unable to provide one month's notice, the company may deduct one month's salary.
This requirement is also mentioned in your appointment letter. Please review your appointment letter for further details.
Thank you.

Adhere to your Appointment letter. or get it interpreted by the HR before accepting the offer or while resigning. Indian Employers are great at deductions & harassment > but poor at sympathizing.

Respected All,
This is Biswajit Biswas from Kolkata, WB. Today in WB, All Trade Unions called for an All India Bandh. My query is, I belong to the Sales & Marketing Department Administration and oversee all HR and Admin activities of the Sales Team.
So in this regard, if any salesperson wants to work but is unable to do so due to the market being closed. Some salesmen apply for leave, but what should we, HR people, do in the case of those who don't apply for leave and do not inform us regarding their status?
Please help

Hello Ambika,
I think you should not blame the company fully because the company may have felt that you are the eligible person to transfer to another department. They may have the confidence that you can do it. When they decided to transfer you for the first time, why did you not object? Suppose we can say that you agreed because of good faith. However, when they decided to transfer you again, why did you not object? If you don't want to adopt the habit of saying no, then you need to consider that. If you have not served the notice period, then you have to pay the notice pay to the company. I don't think the company has made any wrong decision.

Working within any of the company's internal departments is your choice. If you are not satisfied with your job, you can resign by serving a one-month notice period. The salary for the notice period will be processed as per the monthly salary or may be included in the Full and Final payment, depending on the company policy. If you do not serve the notice period, the company has the right to waive off one month's salary against your notice period.

Hi Alphonse,
Let me clarify the whole situation. Actually, my organization is satisfied with my work. They have shifted me to various departments since my director mentioned that Ambika has a good grasping power and can handle multiple tasks at once. I was awarded the Best Employee of the Year-12. They transferred me to the recovery department because the outstanding balances of the organization were in disarray after implementing S.A.P. They assigned me the task of clearing the outstanding balances, which is a finance-related responsibility, with the assistance of six employees from that department who were responsible for the mess. However, within a month of my transfer to the recovery section, my colleagues started resigning one by one, leaving only one colleague and the director's wife. They pressured me to resolve the mess within a month, requiring me to stay late in the office without any overtime pay, including Sundays. I am not a finance expert; I have an MBA in HR with 6.5 years of experience. I am not a novice, and I believe the company should appreciate my work.

Hi Ambika,
I suggest that you please read and understand the appointment letter.
1) You would be required to work for any of the departments or roles as per the business requirement or management decision.
2) You are required to serve a notice period as per the company norms, typically one month.
3) If you are unable to serve the notice period, the company may consider you as absconding and hold your resignation or forfeit the notice period charges, considering you as resigned. This is at the company's discretion.
I understand that with newly established companies, they may not be certain about the resource requirements in a specific project or department. They may ask you to move into another role to avoid losing any associates, which is done on humanitarian grounds. I am not sure if this applies to your situation. (However, I strongly believe that the management attempted to place you in different departments to assess your productivity in various roles before considering asking you to leave).
I recommend that whenever you have the opportunity, try working in different roles to gain knowledge and enhance your career. This does not imply that you need to change your primary role. While staying in your role, you can also support others part-time, providing you with learning opportunities.
The above suggestions, though not directly addressing your concerns, are my input for your professional growth.
I hope you understand...

Ambika, you seem to be a valued person in the organization. You are, perhaps, able to manage a variety of issues, not only from the HR viewpoint but as a 'general management' key person. There is a need to be proud (not with ego!) of your contribution. As mentioned by you already, the best employee of the year (2012) award has been conferred upon you. You surely deserved it, and your management needs an applause for having selected the right person for the award.
No doubt, you have to work hard and put in extra effort, but you ought to be grateful to your organization for giving you all these opportunities. There is never an end to learning, and you are singularly lucky to have earned the trust of the management. No need, therefore, to feel frustrated by not having a defined job profile. Being an HR professional with experience, you can create a Job Description for yourself and get the same approved by your management. Since you have experience in Business Development (Sales) and SAP implementation, besides HR, it may be worthwhile putting yourself in the role of a 'Business Analyst' and creating a JD accordingly. This will add colors to your profile and make you a sought-after person when you decide to move on for better career prospects. It all depends on you, how you look at yourself and how intelligently you cash in on the opportunities that come your way. Best of luck!
