I'm have put in resignation, and requested 8 days less than notice period Now boss wants "copy of offer letter" as to why I want to leave early
Is it legal? I don't want to share my offer letter
What can be done
Don't. Don't share company names also. If they force , say I am getting X amount so I am leaving that's it. If they counter a better one, take it.
Can they force me to complete full notice period
Yes. You are bound to complete. Unless it's mutually agreed upon that you can leave early.
Or just check if your company allows you to pay a part of your basic pay and leave. Usually it will form part of your fnf. Parallelly check with your new employer if they can cover this amount for you.
No, don't do it! It's a shitty guise to know who is hiring you and I am sure it's mostly to check if it's with a competitor. I've seen instances where somebody fell prey to this, they got their offer rescinded and the org ended up firing this individual stating that they breached contract by trying to take employment in the same field which was clearly mentioned no-no on their employment agreement.
Gosh! I said yes to sharing it but something felt wrong. I cannot imagine how they were trying to twist me for information
