if his talking about private sector,its true.they will use last drawn +10 to max 20%.

So if you current hold a position that holds 3,000 and do to virus or wat and u lost job..U find another one just to fill in 1 year or so.ur salary is 2.5.they will use current drawn (which is 2500+ add 10 to 20%) when u find back a full perm position

Thats how private sector works..

If in public sector, most likely he return to his "actual" job after the period while working on other one. He will actually get more than 3,000. HR for public sector follow what the uni test book says one.

The reasons why alot ppl say hr things cant be applied from textbook in real life is because alot hr spoil/market. They don follow one
