Force early relieving without any benefit - they have a right to do?

ravi110011
I need some clarification on the topic. I am working with XXX Global Services Ltd. I have resigned (Keeping in my notice period is 90 days), but now my manager is calling me and pushing me to accept early relieving. My manager forcefully wants me not to serve the notice period and leave with immediate effect. The reason given by him, "Business has no requirement of you in the role." I have informed my manager that I do not have any job in hand; due to which I can't go for immediate relieving. I can only accept this if they pay me for 3 months; in case the business wants me to quit my job. He denied and just insisting, saying it's a management decision and you will need to leave. All this discussion started since I resigned, prior to that there was no such announcement or anything that the company is Ramping down and asking engineers in my team to resign.

I never had a very good relation with my manager, and he never got any chance to verdict me for any issue. Maybe he is now trying to kick me out and get rid of me as I always had questions against his decisions and processes. The same thing he did today with one of my team members who is serving notice period since the last 40 days now.

Please suggest if this is something which is acceptable or they have rights to do?

P.S - Both resignations: mine and my colleague's, were done under manager/management issue.

If your notice period is 90 days as per the offer letter, then the company cannot officially force you to leave earlier. If the company is so eager, let them pay you 2 months' pay and release you earlier. Whether the manager likes you or dislikes you is another matter, but here you should focus only on rejecting pressure to leave on unfavorable terms when there is no ready job for you.

Now my manager has accepted the resignation and set the date to 15 Jan 2018. I didn't accept the same on the Online Tool. I have call recordings and other evidence that prove the manager is provoking me and forcefully wants me to leave the organization ASAP. What should be my next course of action as he is trying to harass me mentally? I have also sent an email to the HR team explaining the issue; probably they will get back on Monday as we are in the weekend now. :(

Don't get provoked and remain strong. Mental harassment has no meaning if you are not getting outwardly upset or reacting angrily. The manager will find no reaction and will stop it. Stick to your requirement, which is legally correct. By provoking you into an angry reaction, the manager or whomever is trying to get another handle to change the direction of the whole case.

Dear Colleagues,

It pains me to see posts from ghostwriters (anonymous). I do not understand why people fear revealing their identities and prefer to live in disguise. Why should I waste my valuable time on lost identities for no reason?

Thank you.

Letter of appointment states that in any circumstance, the notice period will be a minimum of 30 days following the acceptance of resignation. Does this mean that I can be relieved 2 months before my actual end date without being paid for another 2 months?

Dear Ravi,

Yes, the notice period as per the document is 30 days, so you will be relieved in 30 days.

Warm Regards,
