I joined a company on 30 Sep 2024, and on 7 Oct 2024, I resigned due to a job security issue. I received a good offer from another company and joined on 8 Oct 2024. The previous company has accepted my resignation and specified my last date as 7 Oct 2024. Now, they are saying I need to serve a 30-day notice period. If I don't, it may cause a problem in my PF account. I am concerned that if they mark the wrong exit date in my EPF account, the PF dates from both companies will overlap. Can the company already mark a wrong exit date in writing, even though they have given me 7 Oct as the exit date? Please reply as soon as possible.

Joining a company just to leave is not fair. But if an employee has done so, the employer should not retaliate by asking him to remain for one month notice period. If you have joined another company, then you may initiate to exit the previous company by visiting your member portal of EPF. If you already have your UAN activated, log in and do it. Otherwise, you have to activate the UAN, and then mark your exit there. The previous employer has to approve the exit. Obviously, he will not approve the date of exit put by you. If the employer is not approving the date of exit marked by you, you can raise a dispute to the appropriate authority online itself. Your present employer can pay the contributions but until the exit is approved, you will not be able to link it with the member id created by the present employer.
