My mother needs my company due to certain medical reasons.
Due to this I looked for job near my home town, & I got it.
Now upon resigning & completing the handover in one month, My manager is not willing to releive me before 3 months.
I have medical reasons for my mother, I shared all the medical documents, still he is not ready to bend down.
He is giving the reason, that if he will do it for me, every other person will say the same.
Its a India Center of very big US MNC, but still he is doing like if he is the owner of the company.
He is rather asking me to go without releiving & also telling me that he will ask HR to send the legal Notice.
somebody, help me please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have already taken the communication proofs of Handover completion & resign Acceptance.
somebody, guide me please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Q1- Is there any way , that I can create pressure on the company?
Q2- What if I have no choice but have to go without getting releived?
Q3- Next company is ready to accept me without releiving letter, but what if in future background check happens?

Dear Rishi,
What is happening in your case is quite unfortunate. Now a days companies work on lean manpower. There is no standby manpower. Therefore, they are unable to handle issues of this kind. These issues arise because of cultural difference as well. India is socio-centric country. In contrast, US is highly individualistic country. In US, they have adequate social measures to take care of ailing persons. In India we do not have such measures and family members are supposed to take care of their ailing parents or other family members. Therefore, in India, we get torn between Americal work culture and Indian social norms.
I recommend you talking to HR. Find out what they say. Is it possible to change your department or section so that you can be relieved early? If this is not possible then ask HR whether they are ready to give you Leave Without Pay (LWP). Before going on LWP, ensure that your leave application is signed by all the authorities concerned. Otherwise do not proceed without proper authorisation.
Thanks,

Thanks Mr.Dinesh.
Appreciate you reply.
My manager is not a US guy, & India Center is having independent HR as well.
SO no story is coming from US corner.
But, I am just surprised to see- that there is no provision for a employee to take care of their family members, because one manager is not getting his ego satisfied.

Dear Rishi,
Please go through your letter of appointment about the length of notice period. In case it is three month and you have served a shorter period, you may offer to tender the notice pay for the period falling short. But in case it is one month only in that case you have to approach the HR alongwith relevant documents pertaining to your mother's sickness and convince him for acceptance of your resignation. If he does not agree to your point of view then approach the CEO/COO , as the case may be and try to convince him of your problems.
In case nothing happens, in that case, the law says that the resignation has to be tendered as per rules of the company and having done so and having received communication pertaining to the charge handed over and acceptance of resignation law will be on your side, you can switch over after taking into confidence the HR of your prospective organisation. I am sure you have nothing to worry further.

Thanks all.
Finally I received the relieving date with one month instead of 3 months.
Now company asking me to pay the relocation expenses.
In the offer letter they didn't mentioned that.
They just mentioned that it will be as per relocation policy.
Now they are saying if you are leaving within one year you need to pay that.
Are they supposed And authorised to do this?
Pls help!

Dear Rishi,
Compromise is the way of life. To gain something, you have to give up something. As of now your focus should be on attending your ailing mother. Your organisation is trying to extract benefit of your helpless situation. Be as it may. I recommend you adopting "accommodating" approach rather than "confrontational" approach while handling this conflict.
While recommending so, I do not mean to say that you should capitulate. Raise your concern, try to negotiate/bargain for the amount but do not be rigid also.
All the best!

Dear Rishi,
I agree with DVD. Meanwhile I would suggest you to go through the terms and conditions relating to resignation wrt the length of notice period. This may be of help to you during the course of discussions in the backdrop of the first para of my mail on the subject.
