Can Employers Claim Compensation?

A contract is an agreement enforceable at law. A paper document bearing sign of an individual will stand good in the court. As parties agreed to the terms therein by signing.

To bind a contract to each other there should be some legal ingredients to be complied. mere signing a paper doesnt make a valid contract. There should be mutual consensus, should not be forced to sign, shouldnt be due to un due influence as an employer. Should not be against natural justice ie. conditions should be balanced and should not curtain the fundamental rights of a person to right to work as well right to life and personal liberty.

At the same time an employer can claim for the damages he has acually incurred due to the resignation of the employee especialy without notice but he cant resort it as a means to earn un wanted money or cant be used it as to harass the employee.
