A. Dear Client,
It appears that your contract of employment stipulates a clause of one month's notice to be served by either party for leaving the service by an employee and for terminating the service by the employer and for breach of said condition, both the party shall compensate each other instead of notice. So, if you tendered your resignation without serving a notice period of one month, then the employer can withhold your one month's salary in lieu of notice. But your query sounds like somet ...ReadMore

A. Dear client,
Online Distance Degree (ODL) are completely valid while applying to the Central Government.

A. Dear client ,
These days background verification is done by each and every company/organization, wherever you are.
It is always a smart and good choice to not suppress anything you have as such. May be there is no such FIR done, but the record of such activity in noted in the college.
Disclose the entire facts to the employer, explain that it wasn't intentional and hence you have not repeated anything aa such ever.
Hope this will not harm or debarred your job/ employment.

Yes the employer can terminate during the probation period without a prior notice, provided that this term is included in the agreement. Even the employee can terminate the employment, provided that it is aligning to the terms and conditions, agreement between them.
If you are doubtful about the same, let an advocate review your agreement copy before you proceed further.

A. Dear client,
This is a big issue for many MNCs and due to this lot of professionals are suffering. The ways out of this situation are:
1. You ask your previous employer to delete the last data by sending a correction letter to EPF. This might be very difficult and almost impossible.
2. You declare this before joining the new company so that when they roll out the offer they know about it. Don't wait for them to figure it out later during BGV.
3. Dual employment is not illegal and barred by any ...ReadMore

A. Dear client,

The following of the notice period is a mandatory one.
As you are medically unfit, your company cannot force you to do work in such health condition.
You first start by mailing them, try to settle the matter amicably. If not responding send a legal notice.
You can also file a case against the employer.
