I was employed in a company for 9 months. I have resigned via email and mentioned that I am not able to serve a 30-day notice period but only 16 days. I didn't receive any reply from the employer. I sent another email notifying them of my last working day and asked for the Full and Final settlement (F&F), but still didn't get a reply. After that, I stopped going to work from the said date and sent an email regarding the F&F and adjustment of the remaining notice period under F&F, but still no response. What should I do under these conditions? Is joining another company considered an offense in this situation?

Kindly revert ASAP.

The following points are to be kept in mind:

1) Resignation by mail is valid only where, according to the contract of employment, one can resign. Then resignation without acceptance will be valid. If in the contract, there is a period of employment, say 1 year or any such term we call Bond Period, and there is no money specified to be paid in the event of breaking the bond, resignation is valid only when accepted.

2) Send a full-fledged letter with all points mentioned through Registered Ad services of the Post Office.

3) Your F & F is your right. So they have to pay that. For F & F rules, see Indian Labour Laws & Shram Suvidha Simplified.

Dear sir/madam,

Thank you for your guidelines. I only signed a simple agreement that contains a clause stating, "In case of resignation or separation, you have to serve a one-month notice period." However, I have served them 16 days as notice and informed them to deduct the remaining period from my leaves and salary. Is this fully lawful? Kindly guide, and thanks again.
