Employee termination

First, the company cannot terminate him irrespective of the notice period even if the company is shutting down. In such scenerio, the company needs to pay retrenchment compensation which is different from notice period). 

Secondly, the company has to give a notice period of three months before terminating the service of an employee or equivalent payment for three months in lieu thereof. 

Thirdly, apart from the notice pay aspect, a company cannot terminate a service of a person as per its whims. There is a procedure of termination and company has to follow it, otherwise, the entire termination becomes bad in law.

Has the employer mentioned a reason in order of termination?

If an investigation/ enquiry is going on, then the employee against whom such investigation is going is supposed to know the details of the investigation in writing and documentary evidences. One sided investigation/ enquiry is bad in law. I believe the managment is taking the plea of investigation only to delay your release. 

The manangement cannot arbitrarily terminate you. If they do it will be bad in law.

If the company is closing down, you will be entitled to retrenchment compensation which will include notice pay and 15 days salary for each year of service. It has to follow "last come first go basis" provided that Industrial Disputes Act is applicable to you. Please consult a lawyer with all your documents for better advice.

@ Rakesh,

You have not replied pointwise to all points.

The company can not be closed by a verbal communication.

The employee can be terminated by a speaking order after due process of natural justice.

Since you are sounded by a verbal communication, you mayy submit a gentle representation addressed to good offices of appointing authority/MD/Chairman etc that on dated.............Mr/Ms...........Name of company/designation/address.............called from phone number................./time...............at phone number.................and stated..............( company is closing down and no need to attend office from dated..................and employment is terminated etc, whatever was communicated, minute it) and no written communication to this effect has been supplied and you are as per telephonic orders staying at.....................address..............as already in company's records, and a written communication be supplied by letter thru Redg. Post.

 

You are entitled to min. notice pay.

Rest  relate with service conditions applicable to you.

If you are unable to resolve by your own skills lean on able counsel specialzing in labor-service matters.

 

 

@ Ankita,

 

You may also post reply pointwise to all points, that were posted to @ Rakesh. 

The resigantion can be without permission, notice.

The employee has severed the employer-employee relationship the momment employee has resigned.

If employee has initiated decided to retire by notice/resignation then employee shall choose the date of retirement/LWD.

Do you have copy of resignation posted by you on company's system, NOn acceptance of resignation?

Even if you have you may submit a letter for notice of resignation; mentioning that on dated...........................you have uploaded in system (whatever you call it) and ask to supply the copy of system printout as submitted by you and its acknowledgment, and nocommunication has bee supplied to you that to whom you should handover the charge.

YOu may submit final resignation.

It is apparent that your boss shall not issue aceptance of resignation, service certificate,FnF statement, relieving letter.

You must take your next employer in confidence.
