Dear Shweta, Definetely you need pay him as there is no break in the service as he had taken back his letter of resignation. Regards Srinivasan
:icon10:It is agreed that he has resigned. But you have convinced him to stay back, instead of let him go. Hence you may pay salary. If he was absent from work place for the period 2-4 august on his own, then his leave balance could be adjusted instead of deducting salary being a permanent employee. Too some extent you should be a man kind.
Hi shwetha,
The point here is whether he has taken back his resignation on his own or with peer pressure from your end i,e from the company.
If he has taken back on his own, there is no need to pay for the 2 days even if they were the general holidays. If he has taken back from the pressure from the company then he has to be paid. More over the simple advice is consider those two days as leave and just leave.
Important aspect is wt first why he has resigned? Please check whether he was looking for other options? based on this you can decide.

Dear Shewta
Though your query does'nt give full facts of the case , yet on the basis of what you have written , I assume that (1) his resignation dated 2nd August was not accepted by the company and no formal acceptance of the resignation in writing was conveyed back to him and he was not relieved from services on 2nd August (2 )subsequent to your pursuasion, he withdrew his resignation and conveyed back to you of it on 5th August.
Under these circumstances he was in the services of the company without any break and you can not deduct any salary for the intervening days mentioned by you.

Shweta,
Ofcourse you should pay. He has the right to earn wages for the days he was still on the payroll as the resignation was not accepted.
Secondly, as an HR person you should have paid him without creating further fuss since you were already treading on the sensitive grounds. He was obviously an agitated employee since he had put in the resignation. And i assume he must have been the important employee because you all tried to retain him. Then why rake up the dissatisfaction further if you really valued this person.
If he is not worth waiving 2 days off for him, rightfully or not then why did u attempt at keeping him in the organization?
As an HR person you have to be sensitive towards such issues. Sometimes it may mean that you have to bent the rules a bit to maintain peace and order.

The person resinged on 2nd it was holiday for 2nd and 3rd. And as per the statement he rejoined only on 5th. So the company has the right to cut the salary for 4th and not for 2nd and 3rd being holiday. As the letter has not been accpeted so the resignation letter does not have any meaning. But since the person did not report duty on 4th the salary for 4th should be cut. or a leave should be reduced in this case.

Dear Mr. S.Swarnkar
You need to pay him for all days. He put his resignation, but it was not accepted by the management and they convinced him to put his resignation back so it is not case reemployement. There is no break in his employment with your company, so he needs to be paid for his weekly offs and other leave
