Fill in the details
The letter changes as you typeWhy do employees need a relieving letter?
It is proof that they left after serving notice and handing over their work. Most new employers and background checks ask for it, along with the experience letter and the last few payslips.
When should a relieving letter be issued?
On the last working day, or as soon as the handover and clearances are complete. A delay can hold up the employee's joining elsewhere.
Can an employer refuse a relieving letter?
An employer may hold it until notice is served or settled and company property is returned. Once those are done, it should be issued; disputes over withholding it go to the labour authorities or courts.
