Hi, I left my company without any notice; my appointment letter states that I have to give 2 months' notice before leaving. I am on probation period, and I have completed just 2 months in my current job. Now my senior says that you need to pay damages for 2 months as a 2 months salary or they will go legal. I want to know if the company can afford to go legal in this matter and what is the best possible way to get out of it. I do not need any relieving or exp letter from their side as other companies are ready to accept me without a relieving letter as well.
Please help.

if you are not bothered about the experience then you can just walk away, since you are in Probation period you are not a permanent employee and you can leave any time without any notice.

It is more of ethical issue than a legal issue. I do not want to get into legal discussion here. Ethically one need to give the required notice before getting relieved If you want to take a risk, you must take a decision

Dear Colleagues,
I am fully agree with sivasankaran as its a forum for professional people who are known for complying with professional ethics. As per professional ethic one should give prior notice as perscribed under letter of appointment before leaving a company/ Job.
Payment of damage or serving of notice period is to be agreed between interested parties. We are not the right person to comment on that matter under reference as decision lies with shar333.

Either you have to settled your account or you may decide to abscond from the current employment. You may check your appointment order any clause specified for payment of notice period . If you want to relieve properly subject to payment from the current employment.
The employer can hold your remaining period of service salary and PF payment . The absconding of employees can be paid the dues to the company and collect the payment of salaries and PF.
Decide yourself which is the best way to your employment. But you should communicate your resignation to your employment.

I want to avoid any legal action and i am not interested to pay anything to them as well, it is the matter of both the party concern, if company is not fulfilling its promises and not sticking to it, employee has no choice.

dear shar,
at last the least ethics to be followed is to say them that you quit. they can go for an alternative to your position. think about the hardships that comes with absconding employees.

During probation period the employee can leave the job in 24 hours notice. Hence the notice period of two months doesn’t apply.

During probation period, 24 hours notice is enough for employee or employer to resign/terminate. Hence 2 months damage claim will not be applicable.
