Hi,
I am working for a reputed Telecom Company at an Executive level. I am forced to work after official working hours, meaning 13 to 14 hours per day without any days off or leave per week for the last 5 months. I am frequently compelled by my boss to work late at night. I am totally frustrated with my work situation, and despite verbally informing the HR department, I have not received any positive response. I want to leave this job, and my official notice period is 2 months, but I do not want to serve the full 2 months. I wish to leave this job within 15 days.
Please suggest what to do?

Dear Ajitav,
I can understand your situation.
1. What kind of job are you doing?
2. Maybe your boss is also under pressure because of you?
3. Even if you have informed HR, why have they not replied to you?
4. What do you want exactly? Do you want to quit the job, or do you want to fight for your working rights?
5. What are the terms and conditions with your organization?
6. What are your payment terms?
If you provide the answers, you will get a solution.
Thanks & Regards,

Dear Boss,
What kind of job are you doing?
Ans: I am working as a Logistics Executive.
Maybe your boss is also under pressure because of you?
Ans: I think there is no pressure about me.
Even if you have informed HR, why have they not replied to you?
Ans: I have just informed the HR department verbally, and they understand me about every private organization.
What do you want exactly? Do you want to quit the job, or do you want to fight for your working rights?
Ans: I want to quit this job within 15 days, rather than the 2 months (official notice period).
What are the terms and conditions with your organization?
What are your payment terms?
Ans: Payment is on a monthly basis.
Best regards,
Ajit

You have signed an agreement with the company, which requires you to give them a 2-month notice. There is no legal way for you to leave in 15 days. You can try to negotiate a buyout by paying the differential wages of 45 days, but you must be willing to pay, and it's their option whether to accept it. There are unlawful/unethical methods, which members on this forum do not support. If you follow those (like absconding), you will have problems later as you will not get a relieving letter, background checks will fail, and you may receive a legal notice for recovery. I would suggest you resign, serve the full notice period, and leave.
Incidentally, the logistics department in all organizations works 12-14 hours a day. But they have a weekly off. Well, somewhat. Because you are expected to be available online and monitoring certain crucial matters in terms of shipment. So your HR was right in what they told you.

Hi,
Guys, we should support him rather than giving him advice. Your working hours must be communicated to you during onboarding; otherwise, you can send an email to HR and higher management. You can request leave and other benefits. It is not fair to leave abruptly. If you find it unethical, then you can resign, stating the reasons in your letter.

Hiten,
This forum will not support unethical and illegal actions. Not fulfilling conditions of service amounts to both. So, your suggestion of providing support instead of advice is, in this case, incorrect. I think the suggestions given by members are based on their own perspective and understanding of the problem stated.

Hi,
I was informed by my HR team verbally, rather than by mail. I think if I share all this information by mail, it will create a lot of problems for me. However, I have decided to leave this company within 15 days. Please suggest what to do?

Leaving employment without completing notice or absconding is both unethical and illegal.
