Hi,
I am Harish, I am working at my current organization from 2 years now. When I joined, in my appointment letter it is mentioned that my notice period would be 2 months. Now, I have resigned and I am ready to serve 2 months notice, but the company is asking me to serve 3 months notice period. When I asked for the reason, they say that in a recent Appraisal email, they have mentioned that the notice period is now increased to 3 months.
I said I cannot serve 3 months as I have not agreed for the change in notice period. But they are saying that 3 months notice is compulsory and cannot be compromised.
Please let me know how to deal with this, Can I take any legal action to get my relieving letter.
Regards

Change in notice period is not fair when it will adversely affect the employees who tend to resign. But it will be a blessing to those who are thrown out or whose services are terminated because they will also get three months notice or payment in lieu of three months. Please follow the link also.

Legal action will take time and you may not be able to get a proper relieving from the company. Therefore, it is advisable to bring some mediator and settle the issue. Regards, Madhu.T.K
