Dear Sir,

I would like to ask about a dispute with my previous company. I was working there for 5 months (not a confirmed employee). They are denying to give my experience letter on the grounds of my chat history with my colleague, in which we discussed our problems with the company and spoke negatively about the company, but we did not take any actions to harm the company. We were sincere employees who took care of the company's image and clients, etc.

Can they refuse to provide us with an experience letter based on our chat history details, which were exchanged through the office email ID? They did not terminate me; in fact, I resigned on November 1, 2013.

Dear Kuashal,

Just send a written application to your ex-employer requesting them that you worked there from such and such date to such and such date. Although all of your dues are cleared, you have not been given an experience letter. Kindly request them to issue you an experience letter. Make sure to mention your complete and correct address along with your mobile number on it. Send this application through registered post to them. You will definitely receive a reply from them.

Hope this helps you. Cheers.

Hi, the process above can be followed; however, if you have received your F&F settlement sheet, that will specify the dates of employment as well. Please note that an experience letter is not a legal mandate but more of an industry practice. So, as long as the F&F was completed, it should impact your next job. All the best.

I fully support views of Nainz. In addition to F&F papers, if you produce your appointment letter, alongwith relieving letter, it will justify your working experience with that organization.
Always be careful in today’s world of communication of emails, internet, sms, skype chat etc. It is very well accessible to third person, who is techno savy in IT field.
