Hi, I was working for a tech company for 7 months. Now they have asked for a security cheque worth three months of salary as a commitment that I will not leave the company for the next two years. They also stopped my last month's salary for 15 days in order to obtain the cheque from me. I refused by stating that there were no conditions or commitments for any period written in my offer letter, which I signed. Consequently, they terminated my employment, citing "Poor Performance" (I did not resign) during the probation period.
When I inquired about my salary via email, they requested me to attend an exit procedure documentation and salary cheque collection. During the meeting, they declined to provide me with an experience certificate and a relieving letter, reasoning that these were not mentioned in my offer letter. They also presented me with an undertaking document to sign, stating that I will not disclose the company's confidential information. As they did not complete the documentation process, I also refused to sign the undertaking document. Consequently, I had to leave without receiving my salary cheque, experience certificate, and relieving letter. I am a fresh candidate embarking on my career with optimism. Could you please advise me if there are any laws in the labor court or civil court to help me retrieve my certificates and salary?
I have evidence in the form of a call recording of a conversation with the company owner, wherein they requested the commitment cheque and refused to provide my salary and documents.
