I’m facing trouble getting jobs after leaving HDFC Bank in 2015. I worked there for almost two years but faced harassment and pressure to resign. When I refused, they fired me without explanation. I was unwell at the time and signed a resignation letter to avoid conflict. Now, potential employers are rejecting me due to negative references from HDFC Bank, even though they claim to have given a neutral report. This has been going on for over a year, and I’m struggling to find work.

Under Indian law, you have the right to seek employment without undue prejudice from past employers. HDFC Bank’s actions in pressuring you to resign and then providing negative references, even if they claim it’s neutral, could be considered unfair labor practices. You may want to consult a lawyer to explore legal options for challenging these references and protecting your employment prospects.
