Hi, I have been working with the company for the last 10 months, and I am a confirmed employee. I have also received an increment in the current financial year. I am a pregnant lady, and my delivery is expected in the coming December. Now, my company is forcing me to resign, and they are not providing me with any specific reason. They said if I do not resign, they will terminate me.
Please guide me on what I can do in such a case. Should I take some legal action or not? What steps should I take? Please guide me.

Cannot force to resign without valid grounds. Even for termination, employer is liable to give vaild reasons. If not their action can be question in court of law.

Mine is the same case, the only difference is that I joined this company in April 2010. Is it possible that my employer will ask me to resign? As for the other lady, they asked me to fill the same vacancy in her place.

From an employer's point of view, if an employee becomes pregnant during employment, I may increase work pressure to make the employee feel harassed and resign. No employer likes to pay a salary to someone who is pregnant and take care of their maternity needs.
What can you do? Inform the company in writing that you do not wish to avail yourself of maternity benefits and would prefer to take leave due to health reasons. The employer will likely understand this approach, and it may prevent them from pressuring you to resign. Remember, organizational politics can be detrimental, and unexpected situations can arise at any time.
An employee may consider discussing legal action, but practically speaking, taking such action is often challenging. We are all aware of how the legal system operates in India. :)

Yes, it is true that an employer must present legal and valid grounds. However, practically speaking, if we look ahead, you can win on the legal aspects, but what about the relationship between the employee and the employer afterwards? If an organization demands resignation forcefully, they may not be a good employer for you in the future, even if they didn't terminate you. It's better to negotiate for time until you secure another good job.

Dear Employer,
An employer does not have the moral right to terminate an employee without a valid reason. If there is a reason, the process to terminate the employee is lengthy, involving the issuance of a show-cause notice, conducting a domestic enquiry, appointing an enquiry officer, preparing an enquiry report, and so on. Based on the enquiry report, the employer has the right to terminate the delinquent employee or choose to disregard the report.

I agree that no employer can terminate your service without valid reasons. Furthermore, the reasons should satisfy both you and legal authorities, especially if you decide to seek justice in court. If your employer is considering termination, do not resign voluntarily; instead, allow them to terminate your services. Review the reason provided in the termination letter and then consider taking action in a labor court or labor office.
Additionally, you recently joined the company 10 months ago and have received a salary increment. I advise against resigning and recommend letting the employer terminate your services. After that, you can strategize your next steps accordingly.

I strongly agree with the following quote. Employers normally do this as they do not want to pay for the 3 months of maternity leave, and legally they would be bound to pay you. Remember, it is always in the company's benefit if an employee resigns themselves, hence they are threatening to terminate you.
Legally, the case is on your side but practically, you have a dead case. This is not to demoralize you but to make you aware of the practicality in this regard. It is not difficult for a company to show that you are not performing as expected and could terminate you by giving any number of reasons.
The best way is to negotiate with them happily:
1) If you do not want to resign, tell them you do not want to be paid for the maternity leave and would just need pre-approved leave for the time.
2) If they do not agree, take some legal advice and negotiate with the company and leave.
In any case, do not submit your resignation with the condition that you want to be relieved with immediate effect and do not want to serve the notice period. Such companies would force you to resign immediately so that they need not pay you even for the notice period.
Remember, you and your baby are much more important than the job.
All the best.
Take care!
From the employer's point of view, if an employee gets pregnant during employment, I will put more work pressure so that the employee gets harassed and resigns voluntarily. No employer likes to pay a salary for someone who is pregnant and take care of them.
What you can do is give the company in writing that you do not want maternity benefits from the company and would like to be on leave due to health reasons. The employer will definitely understand this, and they will not ask you to resign. Remember, organizational politics can be very detrimental, and it can happen at any moment.

Well, we have discussed the issue on two fronts. Firstly, an employer cannot force you to resign, especially when you are pregnant. We should handle it legally. Secondly, it is not easy for an employee to fight with the company in court and face the effects afterward. Both fronts are equally important, and I will give equal weightage to both. Bending our knees against this forceful demand of the employer will let the same practice continue and will create a tough situation for every upcoming female employee. However, it is not easy for an individual employee to make it happen, as some of our members have already pointed out about the working of Indian Laws.
So, what could be the other feasible solution to this problem? I believe this issue should not be left unanswered, as it is a common issue in many organizations, and many female employees have to face it. I request my other team members/experts to provide a possible solution to this problem.

Hi!!
The situation is common for many. Employers should not ask employees to resign, but they do. Employees find themselves in a position where they cannot do anything but agree to their demands. We can discuss at length whether this practice is appropriate or not. Many HR managers fail to consider employees' situations. They operate more like personnel managers and engage in such nonsensical behavior. Ultimately, they have the power to push back against line managers, but they choose not to, as they are driven by the desire to receive larger increments than others.

It’s true that an employer can’t terminate an employee with out any valid reason, but the company will easily find many reasons to terminate a person, if they are decide to do this. You have to also notice the terms and conditions which you may have signed during your offer acceptance or any other document which they have get signed from you at the time of appointment. There may be some clause that most of the companies will add to escape from such legal actions.
Better make a good deal with the company for avoiding termination/Resignation. Consult with your senior members/coworkers of the company, who were working there for a long period of time. Some times they can give you a good advice, because they have came across many cases like this in your company organization/atmosphere.
The last step is that, you can contact a legal advice for taking a legal action.

• Fellow citehr members have given you clear advise. Asking to resign or termination both actions are illegal in your case. They have also advised you on the risks involved in confronting employer on this issue though law is on your side.
• In case you are prepared to confront the employer, I will suggest you the easy way to do it. Do not submit resignation under pressure. Let employer gather courage to issue you termination order, if he is serious.
• Meanwhile you can approach local Labor Inspector Office and give a formal complaint to him/her. You have to mention facts like your name, address, employers’ name and address, date of joining, date of confirmation, you have to clearly mention in the complaint that employer is forcing you to resign or threatening termination and reason for the same is you are pregnant and employer dose not want to give any maternity benefit and leave. Also mention that there is no issue with your performance and you have been granted confirmation and increment as well. Request their intervention for saving your job and to uphold rule of law and woman’s dignity. You can attach appointment letter, confirmation letter, increment letter etc.
• Once your written complaint is registered with Labor Inspector, your employer will get a notice from the concerned labor inspector, asking for details and to remain present before him/her on a given date. I am sure a single phone call from labor inspector or a notice from his office will surely shake your employer and he will have to fall in line and your termination and resignation can be avoided.
• There are chances that employer will not like your smartness and will always be on look out for some reason to falsely implicate you and punish you. Better be on lookout for better job.
• Employer will probably approach labor consultant or lawyer to defend his ass and then he will have to follow a legal path only. He can prolong and delay the process by spending money but I feel still you can give a try.

I m putting my assumptions. This can be facts too .
And I am also not denying the fact that Mr Manmohan has posted. - Replied in red fonts
1. If every Employer have this kind of Mind, than why they recruit a female employee in their organization?
There is need , legal compulsion , and cost attached for all kind of job positions. A female worker normally found to work at a less salary then a male candidate. This attracts employer to hire female employee. Female employees does not oppose much as male employee do and more over they are more efficient then a male employee in terms of productivity.
2. It is optional that She is agree to take leave with out benefits of ESI.C First is who makes company policy , employers only. If they can make they can make changes also. Whats the harm in talking , if this option works.
3. Every company having good polices but its depands on implementation. Yes I agree , but how many follows.
4. For Indian Law --- Fight for Rights is only for whom having courage. Latest judgement of Bhopal Gas Tragedy is good example.
5. This is only our fault that we are not facing.Practically single person cannot make any changes due to the system. How long some one will fight. We all think about our kin & kin.
6. Laws are good but our Mentality is not Strong. Employees have come to earn bread butter milk . How many does Social work in reality ?

- Employee have not resigned.
- Employer immediately blame the employee for leaked company information or data theft and claim for damages.
- Employer can do it very easily as Mail server access is with employer always. Employer is not bound to prove it saying these are critical and will be proved in Court.
- Online Complaint been lodged against the employee to local police.
- Even if employee aproach the Labour officer , labour officer if have the habit of itching palm he will support the Employer only. Employer always have some relation with them else business is not possible in honest means.
- Local police will avoid even to register the case unless its a big issue.They are piled up with so many FIRs. They will say give her the salary and finish the issue.
- Start using emails very carefully and use it as your weapon to fight with management.
- Do not share password and do always send CC, BCC of mails and keep the senior on loop. Tell your problem to HR Head, even if based out of India and never forget to send mails to MD too marking your personal email as BCC.
- Do not take responsibility of any work where financial or security related problems (Hard Disk Format , Antivirus upgradation )risk factors are too much and you can be blamed for. Take prior approval on email even if the colleague is very close to you. When management will blame no college will come to protect.
- Stop communicating office related issues with front line executives and communicate directly to the person who has decision making authority Some times HRs also involved in organizational politics ( CiteHR hrs don't get offended for this remark) so communicate only this much as its required for them to know. Don't be emotional.
- If the management is pressuring you for resignation, start collecting all records that is favorable to you. If your work is appreciated , get the appreciation letter indirectly. Email is best tool for that
- Even if you need to leave the current job , you can collect the financial amount later on . The employer is bound to pay that but may say according to company policy will get after certain period of time.
- Employee need to talk to the management and even by mistake threaten them for any acts that you can do from legal point of view.
- Make a Verbal Communication to the HR that you are mentally getting tortured and thinking to consult a legal action for harassment . Even by mistake don't put this over mails. Rest HR will only do as they are aware of what the punishment they can get for mental harassment

I do not agree with this suggestion. When a female employee is entitled to maternity benefits under the ESI Scheme or under the Maternity Benefit Act, why should she volunteer to forego the same just to please her employer and maybe/maybe not, protect her job. What the employer can do or cannot do is another matter.
Ideally, an employer cannot force an employee to resign. Well, he has the option to terminate the services of an employee if he so chooses to do. Summary termination has legal implications and the employee may well go to Court. But how many want to exercise this option? The main deterrent is the fact if an employee takes an employer to Court, he/she jeopardizes her future employment prospects. Many employers take full advantage of such vulnerability of employees.

Dear Madam,
Please review your appointment letter, the company's policies, and the clauses mentioned therein regarding the termination of employment. An employer can terminate your employment for two main reasons: non-performance or disciplinary issues/breach of the employment agreement. In the case of non-performance, they should provide you with at least two notices to improve your performance. However, for disciplinary reasons or breach of agreement, they can terminate your service immediately if there is valid evidence of wrongdoing.
If you believe the company is pressuring you to resign unjustly, you have the option to file a complaint with the Labor Department in your area. They will address the matter directly with the management. If the issue remains unresolved, you may seek assistance from the court.
Additionally, you are entitled to take 12 weeks of maternity leave with wages: 6 weeks before delivery and 6 weeks after delivery, in addition to any remaining leave balances you have.

Yes! Here, Gaurav is right that any employee who works under an employer should have a mutual and congenial relationship. However, if the management asks you to resign, it shows their attitude towards the employee or employees.

Dear All,
I would like to share my views with all those who are working with private business organizations, whether small or MNCs. One can be asked at any time to resign by being told "your services are no longer required by the company." It's hard to believe or digest, but these situations exist and can happen in any private organization. If you ask for the reasons behind it, the office will very well explain 100 faults against you, whether you have been serving the company for 10 months or 10 years. There is no benefit in consulting legal practitioners if you are in a management cadre.
The only thing I advise is to trust in yourself and give your 100% performance while working in private organizations. It's a difficult situation when it happens to any individual. I have been with private organizations for the last three decades and am sharing my views with you.
Bottom line: Life is like that; after dark, there is always sunshine. For example, ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

I would like to share my views with all those who are working with private business organizations, whether small or MNCs. One can be asked at any time to resign by being told "your services are no longer required by the company." It's hard to believe or digest, but these situations exist and can happen in any private organization. If you ask for the reasons behind it, the office will very well explain 100 faults against you, whether you have been serving the company for 10 months or 10 years. There is no benefit in consulting legal practitioners if you are in a management cadre.
The only thing I advise is to trust in yourself and give your 100% performance while working in private organizations. It's a difficult situation when it happens to any individual. I have been with private organizations for the last three decades and am sharing my views with you.
Bottom line: Life is like that; after dark, there is always sunshine. For example, ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

The answer to the question is the relationship you are having with the management. If the relationship is good, then the management will give consideration and certain benefits and also grant leave when the occasion arises. So, the above question does not arise at all. If, however, the relationship is not good, then the above question arises.
In the instant case, there are two aspects:
1. Forced to resign - In this case, terminal benefits can be claimed, which is a decent way of parting with the management.
2. Termination - In this case, it is difficult to claim terminal benefits. The management will present a case in which the final claim is very difficult to obtain.

Hi! I have the same situation. My employer forced me to resign because they don't have any grounds to terminate me. They told me that if I do not resign, they will put a case on me so that I will be imprisoned. I am afraid, so I followed them. I signed all the necessary documents that they needed, including the resignation letter. They also sent a letter to the bank stating that I am no longer connected to them, so the bank now freezes my account. The issue is they deposited my last pay into that bank account, which I can't access now. I can't get my money, as the bank is asking for a termination letter to unfreeze the account. I have tried to ask for that letter from my employer, but they refused. Now, I don't know what I should do in order to access my money and return to my home country. Please advise; I am currently residing in Dubai. I don't know what else to do; my visa has already been cancelled, and I am staying here illegally since I no longer have a work permit. Everything I had here is lost - no more home, no more money - because I have been struggling with this problem for more than 30 days since I signed that resignation. I have not received any compensation from that company.
