Dear All,
I am working in a chennai based IT consulting pvt ltd company. I have submitted my resignation in Nov 2016 but still My company didnt release me from the organization, my HR said I have to get concurrence from delivery department as I am a part of on going project. My deliver manager informed that I will be released only after the completion of the project. But, the project is getting delayed for so many reasons, Now we have salary issues, company is not paying salary regularly for all the employees, the companys financial situation is bad now, imagine they have paid March salary on 24th May, For the past few months this is the case, even many people are submitting resignation but the company is not relieving them. Informing them that situation will get better in couple of months. They are not paying salary on time and not relieving from the organzation even after serving 6 months notice period.
Now suddenly, My HR says effective April 1st, the notice period have been revised to 3 months and that too only after the acceptance of resingation, my notice period will start, Earlier it was 2 months notice period when I submitted my resignation. Now I am mentally disturbed, I am not sure how to get out of this company, I was very patience all along but I feel now that my company is taking employees for granted. Please suggest a suitable way to get relieved from the organization. I want to know how the labour law support us in this kind of situation.
please find below termination terms from the revised offer letter with new notice period.
