Dear Experts,
One of our employees worked with our company for 7 months without serving the notice period; he left the organization. Later, we sent the final settlement sheet deducting the notice pay. Now he is saying that we should not hold his payment. Additionally, he is asking for the LTA, Bonus, and incentives, which we give only if an employee completes one year with our company. This individual has now sent an email stating that he will give us 10 days to pay his dues. How can we deal with this issue?
KINDLY HELP ME OUT.
Thank you.

When you believe that you are wrong, just pay and clear it. As per the rules, you cannot withhold anybody's salary and statutory bonus because if the employee approaches the labor court, your management will face problems. Just check your company's rules and regulations or standing orders on this basis. Consider the appointment letter you provided to the employee. If the employee has made a mistake, then document it with a notice, conduct an inquiry, and proceed accordingly.

Hi,
Whenever an employee leaves, before finalizing the full and final settlement, the employer should obtain a resignation letter from the employee. This practice helps to resolve issues related to labor disputes. In terms of recovering notice pay, you should follow the conditions outlined in the appointment letter; however, notice pay recovery should not exceed one month. In the case of bonuses, an employee who has worked for 30 days or more and receives a Basic+DA salary up to Rs. 10,000/- per month will be eligible for a bonus. As for LTA and incentives, please refer to the terms specified in the appointment letter.

Dear Questioner,
Please pay bonus, incentive, and LTA on a monthly basis and settle their full and final dues. As per the rules, the employer does not have the right to hold or not pay any amount except until disciplinary action is issued in writing.

Hrithik,
In my opinion, the organization has jumped to a conclusion too early. It appears that he has formally resigned but left earlier than the notice period, based on which you have committed to the full and final settlement.
I think the incentive should be performance-based, so you could decide based on his contribution and the terms of the agreement from the appointment letter. LTA is payable once every two years on claims made, so you may decide based on any such proofs submitted. Also, you might want to pay him a prorated monthly balance after tax deductions to maintain a good image for the organization.
