Is serving Notice Period is mandatory if I do not want the Experience letter? Is serving Notice Period is mandatory if I do not want the Experience letter?

2 years ago

I Joined the company and 2 days later I resigned. Now they are asking me to serve the notice period of 2 months or else to pay the notice pay.
Can I leave immediately if I do not want the experience letter or will it put me in any legal trouble?

A.If you have employment contract which states notice period mandatory than its breach may put you in legal hassle if your company wishes to take any legal action against you, however it is advisable that if you don't want to serve notice period better talk to your organisation's concerned person and negotiate with/request him/her to waive off the notice period in your case and you may offer them to not give experience/recommendation letter in return but if they take the notice period waiver in writing vide email from the official email address of your current organisation. Thank you.

A.Hi,
If your contract terms contains the provision to serve the notice period or pay the notice pay, then you will have to abide by it, otherwise they can sue you for the breach of contractual terms.

A.Hi,
If your contract contains the term that you need to serve a notice period or else they are entitle to seek remuneration for notice pay, then you will have to mandatorily serve the notice period or pay them notice pay, otherwise they can sue you for breach of contract.
