There are no specific Labour Law as such on whether an Employee is supposed to give a notice period after resignation. It is an agreement entered by both Employee & Employer that each of them would give suffucient notice period after resignation or firing an employee subject to the conditions as written in the Employment offer. This is irrespective wehtehr on probation or confirmed.
If there is no sufficeint notice period given it amount to breach of agreement.
Please relook at the employment letter. It always favours the Organization action.
Hope this helps.

Dear Anand,
Well this clause of Notice period is there in our HR Policy, the same was not signed by this employee due to oversight by HR Dept. He has not contacted the HR dept before leaving the company and has directly informed his HOD and left.
Now can you inform me if he is still liable to serve the notice period of 15 days as per our policy.
Please reply urgently

This is a contratual agreement. Irrespective whether he has signed it or not. The reason he has been drawing the salary based on the letter of offer which means he has agreed for the terms and conditions. It depends on what project he is working on. Say in a R&D setup if a Engineer is employed it involves lot of Confidential drawings and if he leaves the company without any notice, the Company can publish in The Newspaper about the risk of higiring him as well as the Company if suffered any dmage can file a Suit (criminal Case) under court of law.
If he runs away from the office you cant do anything about it as the current market is vulnerable and you get job everywhere and employers currently are not too concerned about the experice certificate. I face this regularly and I live with that!!!

Hi Tina,
your query is replied seriatim.
1) By the Employee, if the Employee is under probation?
The employers generally keep the term of notice period in appointment letters to be given by hte employee/probationer in case of resignation.
2) By the Employer, if the Employee is under probation?
Generally, the employers keep a term in teh appointment letter that the services of teh probationer may be terminated at any time without prior notice and also without assiging any reasons to the probationer. So it is Obvious that employer may terminate the services of probatione without any notice.
3) By the Employee & Employer if the employee is confirmed.
if the employment is confirmed, both the parties are required to give notice in case of termination/resignation of employment by either side.
in view of the above, you need to check your appointment letter, whether there is any such clause therein ? If it is there, you will have to serve the notice period or otherwise you may resign with immediate effect.

Dear Tina,
There is no specific provisions made under law for notice period. This is agreement between employer and employee. The terms & conditions mentioned in appointment letter.
If employee resigns during probation, he can leave without giving notice to employer & employer need not deduct any notice pay from his dues. But if employee is confirmed & leaving in short notice, then as per terms about notice period, the employer has to deduct notice pay deduction from his legal dues.

Dear Anand,
I would like to differ from your opinion. If the employee has not signed the agreement i.e. the appoinment letter, then he is not liable to serve the notice period as there is no comtract per the provision of Indian Contracts Act. And if its a case of normal resigning without serving the notice period(And the appointment letter is also not issued) then i think it will be unethical to publish in newspaper.
