My small fabrication unit in India has 8-9 employees. Recently, one worker left without notice and returned after a month, demanding his job back. When I refused, he filed a complaint with the labor commissioner who ordered me to pay compensation. Now I’m worried that other workers might follow suit. How can I prevent this from happening again?

Under Indian law, an employee can be terminated with proper notice or payment in lieu of notice. You should have a clear employment contract with all employees outlining the notice period and termination process. This will prevent future disputes and ensure compliance with labor regulations.

Hi, I’m working at an IT firm in India. My appointment letter says I need to give a month’s notice if I resign during my probation period. I submitted my resignation three weeks ago, but my employer hasn’t accepted it. They’re now asking me to serve two months, but my letter states one month and I’ve already extended it by a week. So I’m currently serving a month and a week’s notice. My questions are: 1. Can I leave after serving this notice period? 2. If I do leave, can my employer take any legal action?
