Employer Recovery Legal notice Employer Recovery Legal notice

6 years ago

Dear Lawyers forum,

Please help on how to act on the below :

I have quit my job on November 3rd 2016 after serving four months from a telecom company.

I have received a call from the Hr in November 2017 urging me to pay the recovery amount of 27k as stated in the full and final settlement. As per the FNF calculation, they have added a column called recovery 22k. But, I have no idea as to what lead to the amount 22k. There is no break down.

When I have questioned the HR regarding the same, HR has vaguely responded by saying it is relocation expenses. On further questioning, the HR replied that these are coats for staying in the hotel during and orientation and relocation etc.

I have received a legal notice asking me to settle the amount without any breaking down on what indulged such expenses. On several instances, I have paid my own bill for hotel and vehicle transport. I have receipts of the same.

Further, the appointment letter which I have signed clearly mentioned that I am only liable to 1 months basic salary in case of quitting before 1 year.

Please let me know how to about this.

Many thanks

A.You have to act as per the terms & conditions of appointment letter signed by you, any demand of the company outside the purview is illegal & against the law and standing rules of the company.Better to consult a Labour & Employment and Service matter lawyer from the panel of Vidhikarya to settle the issue quickly, you have to reply the legal notice through a Lawyer.

Secondly about the F&F settlement and any money due to be paid back to company can be arrived at only by looking at your employment offer and Terms and Conditions. Usually, it does not happen that the companies ask for the hotel and travelling costs to be reimbursed back to the companies.

A.Nothing can go beyond the clauses as mentioned in the Appointment Agreement, moreover anything which goes beyond the Appointment Agreement only happens in case of extreme circumstances such as if you stole anything from the employer, or committed any kind of fraud or damaged the reputation of the company where you used to work.. But, in your case nothing is extreme. Moreover, you mentioned you didn't any reimbursement from the company in regards to transportation or on accommodation. Since, the company has not spent any amount on you & moreover reimbursement happens when you show the bills. The company is liable to reimburse such amount spent by the employee when the employee relocates for company's cause. So, the company cannot ask to compensate for that. Since, you have all those evidences that company has not reimbursed you what you have spent, so you are not liable to pay any damages to them.
