A.Dear Client,
An employee should receive a relieving letter when he/she resigns from their job or when his/her employment contract comes to an end. A relieving letter is a formal document that confirms the employee's resignation and serves as proof that they have completed all of their obligations to the company. As per the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, it is legally mandatory for employers to issue relieving letters to employees who resign from service and withholding a relieving letter without any valid reason amounted to unfair labour practice. So, in the prevailing situation, if you are not holding the position of Manager/Supervisor but a workman as defined u/s.2(s) of the Industrial Dispute Act then after serving a strong legal notice to the Company, reach out to the office of the Labour Commissioner concerned for filing a complaint against the employer over alleged unfair labour practice to resolve the grievance. Otherwise, you need to file a civil suit seeking appropriate relief in the matter.
