Employee threatening to complain in department of labour


15-Feb-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
We are a S/W company from Hyderabad and actually we have updated the notice period policy from 2 months to 3 months. One of our employee has discussed that is not okay with 3 months notice period. However, he has resigned after 3 weeks and he has not mentioned this reason in the resignation email. He has been relieved on his request from his duties after serving 2 months notice period instead of 3 months. We have paid his salary for the 1st month during NP and 2nd month salary is not paid as he has not served the 3rd month NP and we want to compensate his salary for that. What will be the consequences for this as the employee is saying that he complain to Department of Labour. Please assist me in this regard asap. Regards, Mani

The change in notice period should be mentioned to the employees 3 weeks prior. In your case as you are willing to provide the full and final settlement to the employee, you are no longer liable however, you may be required to pay him the salary of the 2nd month.
