Resignation submitted after Last date of leaving

Please give you suggestion on, if employee is resigning after 2 months from his last date of working or date of leaving due to any reasons. While writing your suggestion please mention the reasons also.

At the time of exit of employee from the organisation two dates are very important, they are DOR (date of resignation) and DOL (date of living also known as last working date). DOR should be before DOL if it is not then most of the organisation consider DOL as a DOR. (For processing full and final settlement DOR can not be after DOL because on the bases of this date we will count notice period. if DOR is after DOL that means employee had not given notice period)

Now question arise How DOR can be after DOL? In most of the cases employee absconding from work and after sometime he send resignation letter, employee was on leave and insist of joining back he send resignation letter etc. and till that time HR had not taken action against employee.

Now coming directly to your question--If employee is resigning after 2 months from his last date of working or date of leaving due to any reasons? Whether employee can resign after 2 months of DOL will depend upon case to case and reason of delay. Most of the organisation do not accept resignation letter after such a long time. They have set procedure by which they will terminate employee and send voluntary absconding letter (in absconding case). Some how if HR accept the resignation letter (Due to any reason) then he will take DOL as a DOR and process full & final settlement. If you put DOR after DOL then it can create practical and legal issue.
