Notice period in public sector bank Notice period in public sector bank

2 years ago

Sir/Madam, I resigned from a public sector bank as a confirmed employee of the Bank without giving/serving 3 months notice period. Bank asked me to deposit the gross salary for 3 months. But there was no provision for this in the appointment letter and also no mention was there in service rules of the Bank. The rule was related to the employees currently under probation. They had to deposit 1 month salary in case they are not able to give notice period. Pls help whether Bank is justified in asking for 3 month salary to be deposited with Bank.

A.Reply them asking the rule.
If they still insist then send legal notice though lawyer.
After that also they dont budge then you dont have choice but to deposit.

being public sector bank having public money, bank will take 3 months notice money from curt even if they have to spend amount more than that. So ultimately you have to pay and can not escape.

A.Hi,
Is such provision was not present in the appointment letter, then such demands by the bank is illegal and not justified. You should complain with the district labor office, alternatively send them a legal notice against such demand, threatening to institute a case against them in the labor court.

A.Hi,
If there was such no provision in the appointment letter, then this is not justified. You can approach the district labor office and complain against the bank. Alternatively, you can send then a legal notice against such order of the bank. If nothing works, then approach the labor court and file a case against the bank.
