Hi,
I am in this strange situation.
I am currently working in a public sector enterprise (A) which is a subsidiary of another major psu (B). I am currently in my probation period where there is no notice period. However am under a bond obligaiton for 3 yrs. Recently I got selected for another major psu (C) for which i applied before joining A but have received the NOC from A for appearing interview.
I have tendered my resignation from A on 8th March and requested them to releive me by 21st march since 29th march was my joining in C. However due to delay in processing of release from A i extended my joining in C to 25th April, since C is not ready to let me join without release letter from A. Recently I was asked by the HR from A to further extend my joining date since my resignation acceptance has been sent to B as it is the governing body. So i further extended my joining to 1st june.
Now I am worried that if i am not released before 1st june what if C does not give me further extension. MEaning I lost the job in C. And if A releases me after that, I lost my job in A as well. In such a case I am jobless.
What can I do? keeping in mind I am in probation where there is no notice period but A is taking almost 3 months to release me only due to negligence.
Please help..!!

Hello 666_666,
You haven't mentioned how you are handling the Bond.
Also, did you FIRST discuss with HR BEFORE submitting your resignation?
You mentioned, there's no notice period during the Probation--not sure if that can be right. Usually it's lesser than after Confirmation, but not 'zero' duration. Pl recheck your Appointment Letter.
Prima-facie, looks like A is playing around, taking advantage your ignorance/missing out on the procedure. If you haven't addressed anything reg your 3 yr Bond, there's a possibility that finally they may come back to say--you have a Bond, so serve till 3 yrs & then go.

Thanks for your replies.
Regarding the bond, As per DPE guidelines the bond is transferable from psu to psu, as I have got NOC for appearing the interview and A is ready for bond trsnfer to C. C has also agreed for the same.
Regarding notice period- Yes it is zero notice period during probation, which is well mentioned in the HR policy.
The problem I am facing is mainly due to slow processing of my resignation by A at the first place. While I resigned on 8th March, the application was sent to B for acceptance only on 13th April.
Secondly, I went through the file processing time at B through their File movement system and noticed that cases of resignation and bond transfer take over a month to get approvals. This is causing concerns for me. Although this may not happen at my case. But you never know.
For taking the recent time extension from C till 1st june I wrote to HR at A regarding clarification on my release and the HR replied to the same suggesting me to take extension from C as my application is in process. Based on the reply C agreed to give extension. I am not sure should I require to further extend beyond 1st June, C will agree or not based on HR of A reply (logically C should, as there is nothing I can do and my resignation is being processed and also A,B,C all are psu).
I hope I have put my case clear here.
