Hi guys!
My company has recently informed me through text message that they are closing down one of their branch without giving me my one month notice as stated in the contract that was duly signed. When I bring up the topic on the one month notice, they told me to serve it at another tuition centre instead, which was not even stated in the contract. I rejected the idea and told them that they have to pay me my salary in lieu of notice. From what I know, I've checked about the transferring with MOM and they said that it must be of mutual agreement before they can transfer me, if not the company has to pay me one month of salary in lieu of notice. But they refused to. So I called up one of the bosses and he shun me off by saying that the contract is a mistake and it should not be legally binded. He even dared to tell me that he will go down to MOM to check.
Although my contract was only a part time contract but it was still a contract that should be legally binded as it was signed by the management. MOM even told me that even if its a part time contract, I will still be covered under the employment act. Now I am not asking for retrenchment benefits. The thing is they should be paying me my salary in lieu of notice.
So I'm asking you guys if I've got the rights to bring this up to MOM so that they can take legal actions against them? Will I win for this case?
I've just started school and now they are doing this to me!! What I feel was that it was very unfair. How can a contract be a mistake? Sigh..
Please advise me. Thank you guys!!
got contract no need worry
fight till the end if u have the time and effort to
@FireIce thank you for your reply! Now the boss went to MOM and he came back to me only offering 2 weeks of notice payment. I feel that I should still fight for my one month.
Should I?
if u satisfied and wanna move on then take loh
if u feel u deserve to have full then fight on
get ready lawyer. woohoo~
Go down and talk to him face to face. Demand u get the full 1 month pay. Purposely give 2 weeks he want play punk with u. u go down confront him. If he dont give, go down MOM again. Make him pay.
Yup! I'm going down to MOM this Monday.
