I resigned after an appraisal but was never informed of a policy requiring a 6-month stay or salary deduction. Despite multiple emails and follow-ups before my last working day, HR never mentioned it. Now, at full & final settlement, they claim it's in my appraisal letter, which was never given to me or signed. Can they legally deduct this amount without my consent? What legal steps can I take to challenge this?
Sir, if your employer did not inform you about the 6-month stay or salary deduction policy, and you never signed the appraisal letter, they cannot legally deduct the amount. You can send a legal notice to HR challenging the deduction, requesting a copy of the appraisal letter. If unresolved, file a complaint with the Labor Commissioner or seek advice from a labor lawyer to take appropriate legal action for wrongful deduction.
