What are the ways to defend myself if my Manager is not acceprting my Resignation and declares me Absconding from Job?

I told my Manager three months ago about my intention to leave, but he asked me not to leave for some time as his Ratings get affected due to attrition. I knew him for some time so I agreed to help him in that. Now when I actually did resign after 3 months of informing him, he refused to accept my Resignation stating he did not receive it, even though I submitted in the Company Portal and told me that because he hasn't received the Resignation and I'm not in the office and have clearly stated m

Your facts indicate the case of restraining you for exit from your employment and disallow you to join another organization or to clear your dues which the company owes. Moreover, such kind of practice is being adopted by some of the HR to delay the exit of the employees or to pay the dues of the employees. However, its not allowed per se and any such practice of HR has already been declared unlawful/illegal in various judgements held by Supreme Court and various other High Courts. However, prior to exit from the company, there must be some pre conditions to be fulfilled such as notice period, completion of exit formality, buyout of notice period or any other way out. Also, if there is no such provision or absence of any of such terms in the employment agreement, there are legal precedents to be followed. The facts of your case need to be review in detail. Therefore, it’s advisable to connect with us or any good lawyer and raise the issue of unlawful restraint of trade/employment and other suitable claims against the Company.

Dear Friend, Firstly, we need to check all the documents such as your employment agreement, company policy, etc., Apart from that, did you get any confirmation from Company Portal? He does not have any right to reject your Resignation! You can immediately escalate it to the next level. if no one responds, you can write an email to all seniors including management saying that you have resigned on so n so date, accordingly your last date is so n so, and ask them about handover process and other formalities.

If the notice and the resignation letter is on record i.e., via e-mail or physical copy of letter with the appropriate department and in accordance with your terms of contract with the Company, it will be deemed that you have resigned from your office by giving appropriate amount of notice. Just keep a track of your documents and contact me for any further legal assistance in this matter, if your manager decided to harass you. E-mail: advarzoo.raj@gmail.com

I was forcefully asked to leave and when requested to review the decision I was told that the F7F will not be given and it will show as termination in the reliving letter so I had to resign. when asked later the company said it was a valid reason.

I joined Apple India on 16th March 2023 presuming my career will get the boost because of only 1 reason " my love for Apple". Initially, I had a lot of medical issues (Severe Sleep Apnea) but to my surprise nobody understood. For the same reason I got myself tested again and then only I saw people coming to me asking if I needed any help. However, my immediate manager was not concerned about the same. And I was always treated as am not required in the organization. And to my surprise nobody knew sleep apnea is a medical condition, even though I did not complain and ignored the reactions. And I believe I was judged on my medical condition that I cannot be a good performer and the management was looking for reasons to terminate my employment. Which came as a sudden blow which gave me severe mental agony, emotional break down and helplessness because i was told to decide right at the moment if I want to resign or get terminated, I was not given the fair trial and was also threatened that if a go for "review the decision" then my employment will certainly be terminated and I will not be getting any compensation and my store manager Andy Dey and Senior Manager Charlotta Larsson(on a visit) did not give me any reason in writing about my misconduct it was all verbal. And asked me to write my resignation letter on a piece of paper, I was completely numb and in complete shock that I could not even write my resignation so Andy Dey (manager) wrote the resignation letter for me and asked me to sign the same. I kept begging and cried for 2 hrs. seeking help or any alternative but simply denied. Let me bring the brief summary of customer experience due to which i was forcefully asked to resign on the basis of breach of business conduct: On 10th Oct customer reported a Mac password reset issue along with an iPhone and Apple watch pairing issue. She asked the person on concierge to book appointment for both Mac and iphone however the concierge person only booked the customer for MacBook. I resolved the Mac password issue then the customer was informed me about the iPhone and Apple watch pairing issue, as per the policy I informed the customer that we needed to book another appointment however the wait time was 1hr & 45 Min which the customer straightaway declined as she already waited for more than 2 Hrs. So, I booked the appointment and manually picked it as well which is not right, I understand. During this period of troubleshooting customer said "She is been waiting for 2 hrs. and with me again 2hrs, she needs to pee and quickly grab something to eat", I informed the customer not to leave the product as we cannot take responsibility and I did ask her not to go or take the devices as well. However, customer smiled and gave me the passcode(never used in customer absence) and said i can call her if something urgent and left the store despite me asking her continuously not to go. As the appointment was stretched way over due to multiple products and multiple issues as well (mac password issue and mac update, iPhone update, backup and pairing issue and watch update and pairing) so the manager were continuously asking me in the raised voice about the status of the issue and the customers whereabouts. I informed the same to the customer no one gave the solution what next has to be done. Due to the manager's reaction and me getting confused I called the customer unknowingly that it can lead to my termination from the personal device for which customer gave me the verbal consent. My medical condition was not understood and because initially due to sleep apnea I felt very dizzy during work that was taken as am not serious about my work. I just had 2 meeting, no written document so far and suddenly I have been ask to resign forcefully on 30th Oct 2023. I have no job in hand and a lot of obligations and on top of that the ducks back attitude of my manager caused me complete mental and emotional breakdown this is happening working for a giant like Apple what else to expect from others. My mistake was I called the customer from my personal phone unknowingly because my managers were continuously asking about the status of the customer and could not leave customers devices unattended on the floor. My intention was not to breach Business compliance or policy but just positive customer experience. And nobody knew I called the customer it was me who informed them and admitted upfront that I called the customer from my personal number. Had this breach known to me will I ever be telling the truth; my Intention was to help the customer first and I did not know that If I call the customer from my personal number would penalize under business conduct. Am writing to Global Compliance team with a hope that I'll get a fair trial & information about how I have been treated from day 1 to the day I got immediate termination with no written documentation, is that correct and is that how Apple treats their employees? I understand it was a breach of business conduct, however I wasn't aware of it that I cannot call customer from my personal number, and it did not hamper customer experience and the call was made with the customer's consent. Then also do I fall in the zero-tolerance category which deserves forceful immediate termination/Resignation?
