My Boss is torturing me from last few months to put down my resignation in a blank paper. Without any written reason. He says that he needs a circle shaped person, but I am a square shape. He\'s allegation on me are all verbal..I don’t know how to work.
On last Thursday, 17th June, he placed a blank paper thrice in front of me and forcing me to write resignation immediately. While I refused to do so, he threaten me and said I can ruin your carrier..even I have done earlier. When I asked him what is the issue he says, you put your resignation then I will tell you.
disrespected a manager in front of juniors, speaks rudely, he has told me “I will slap you” he blames me for nothing. He is more into grouping.

As you have not given enough information about what you do and in which type or organisation you work etc, it is not easy to give you sound advice. However, please do not sign any blank papers. If you want to quit give harassment by the boss as the reason and quit.

Who is the person above your boss in the organisation?
As learned member above has mentioned, do not sign blank papers under any circumstances.
Threatening to slap by itself is a criminal offence,if it is accompanied by hand gestures etc.Section 351 IPC.
Try and note down document dates,timings, wordings and names of those present.
Also look around for another job.
Present circumstances are not conducive for work.
Also introspect deeply-have you done anything to provoke such behaviour knowingly or unknowingly??

Hello Smbose,
As Simhan mentioned, DON'T....repeat DON'T....sign any Blank papers--not just here but anywhere.
Coming to your situation, how long were you working in this Company?
How big is the Company--employee strength?
Don't you have HR--if your boss can talk like this & still get away, you need to talk to HR.
But IF your Company is a small one & your boss also happens to be the Owner, the only option you have to is to MOVE FROM HERE......and fast.
However, I don't think you should resign giving the reason(s) as suggested by Simhan---in all probability, you will be terminated without your resignation being acknowledged. You would create another problem while trying to solve this one.
You mentioned "He is more into grouping". What do you mean by this?

Resignation seems the most feasible option if the boss stays as the owner of the firm. Other than that, report to higher authorities ASAP. Regards, SK

You address your resignation to the Chairman of your company and on top just write, Through: Mr. _____________ (Your Boss's name and Designation).
I body of the resignation you just mention that "As compelled by my immediate boss Mr._______________(Your Boss's Name and Designation) I am hereby resigning from the service of the organisation with three months' notice. This resignation is under duress and I request you to do the needful as per the relevant law of the land."
Make the resignation in duplicate and take acknowledgement of your boss on the duplicate copy of the resignation. Just relax and watch the fun thereafter. He will not dare to forward the resignation nor ask you anytime to resign.
