I got the appraisal letter on 30 July 2022 and the arrears amount for the 4 months is still not paid by the company. As I have discussed with my HR regarding the resignation they told me if you resign now then your Arrears amount will be laps and you didn't get a single penny from the arrears amount.
Is there any legal provision to handle this situation?

Arrears of salary is a right of employee. it is okay if your salary revision is not with retrospective effect but only with prospective effect but once its is communicated as having effect from a back date, the employee is entitled to get arrears of salary or what is called back wages. The employer cannot deny it on the ground that the employee is leaving or has left the company. I think the HR person in your company is unaware of labour practices and consequences of communications sent to employees.

Hi Madhu,
Thanks for the reply.
I have discues this with HR for the same. they told me the Arrears amount is given to the employee who is continuing the job. it's not for those employees who are not continuing.
The company I work for is not employee-centric. They are sucking the employee's blood. They are trying to deduct as much as they can from FNF.
Do I need to file a complaint with the labor commissioner or is there a legal law governing this issue?
Requesting you to please help me with the same.

About the legal bent of mind of any HR person, I don't doubt his/her competency to understand the proper implications of a legal stand adopted by the company on a particular issue at times adversely affecting certain employees. On the contrary, such HR person simply acts as a mouth piece of the management for obvious reasons. Many employers try to be know-alls and not receptive to the advice of their subordinates. That's how the poster got such an explanation.
The poster can take up the issue with the Labor Department or leave it according to his choice depending on the possible retaliation of the company in matters like BGV.

When there is a revision of wages and the new scales are enforced, then the old scales are replaced and there cannot be the continued applicability of the old scales for a few. (the resigned employees) As such they too are entitled to the revised scale for the period of service. Yet there are very many organisations (both in the Public and private sector) who indulge in such negative practice.
