Dear Sir/Madam
I seek your advise on the below matter.
I was working for a German based company in Gurgaon since last 1.5 years. Since that time I earned 28 earn leaves(EL).
My notice period in the company was 1 month, I resigned form my position and got the EL approved to be taken during notice period. Now after a month at the time of Full and Final, company is informing me that if i take leave in notice period, they will deduct my salary and pay me nothing.
Explanation given by them for this matter is :-
1. if i take leave in notice period it will be considered as i am not serving that many days of notice period, so i have to pay the company for that many days
2. Since i took a paid leave for that days, so that makes us even and they will pay me nothing.
As an information: this was not informed to any employ of the company till now. THIS IS NOT WRITTEN IN EMPLOY HANDBOOK (Company policy) and also not mention anywhere in my appointment letter.
please suggest what should I do.
Thanks a lot in advance.
