I’m facing a situation where I need to leave my current job, but I’m not able to serve the full notice period. My company is asking for 2 months of basic salary instead. Can they take any legal action against me? If so, what kind of action can they take?

Yes, your company can take legal action for not serving the full notice period. They can file a civil suit for breach of contract and seek damages equivalent to the salary for the unserved notice period, which could be a maximum of 2 months’ basic salary in your case.

As a pharmacist in a government hospital, I’m the sole person in my role. When I need to take leave, the Medical Superintendent expects me to find a replacement myself, even though there’s only one pharmacist. This forces me to ask other staff members, like nurses and technicians, for help, which can be embarrassing. Should I be responsible for finding my own reliever, or is it the Medical Superintendent’s duty to arrange for suitable coverage? Please guide me on the relevant rules and regulations that I can use to address this situation with the authorities.
