Hi,

Last year I sign one agreement with my company and there stated I need to give 6 months notice if I want to resign.
That time I did ask for the reason why 6 months so long? The answer from the administrator is "You are playing an important role in this company so you will need to give 6 months notice to get someone replace you."

When I sign that agreement I didn't know from the labour law the MAX resign notice period is 7 weeks ( been working 2 years since they still a small team )

So now finally I know my right and I insist want to leave after 7 weeks instead of 6 months. is that possible?
Because when I sign they didn't mention the labour law stated 7 weeks and I feel I kind like cheated by them. I feel so pissed when I know the truth from labour law.

So since they CHEATED me on the resign notice period, can I still leave after 7 weeks follow the law or must stay for another 6 months follow the agreement I signed?

Reasons why I want to resign?
1. Relation with my boss is damaged and unrecover.
2. The project timeline are always get shorten and treat my team as SUPERMAN.
3. No OT pay for years No project bonus for years.I help them earn lots in the past few years but I get nothing in return. While boss is changing his car this year.
4. I start to bored on the situation and pissed on everything it is better I reject myseft before something bad happened to my reputation.


Please give advise to me cause I am TRAPPED on this shitty position.

Please refer to here

Under
"WHAT IS THE NOTICE PERIOD REQUIRED TO TERMINATE A CONTRACT OF SERVICE ?"

"2 years or more but less than 5 years of service - minimum 6 weeks "


Correct me if I am wrong =/

So.... I need to call labour law and ask for advise?

=/

So in no matter what....
I will need to serve the next 6 months with heartless mood? =/

Added on June 21, 2009, 2:08 pmI remember inside the agreement...
if I "disappear" for days then company will terminated me.

so I can disappear myself for days and make them terminated me?

or another way round? Do shit job all time.. and MAKE them terminated me?
In another way,.. if they terminated me.. they going to "ganti" salary for me xD

As I said.. i playing an important role in the company...

If I disappear suddenly... most of their projects will getting delay...
and with the so peanut salary it is hard to get someone like me
( capable and CHEAP labour ) to join them...

If you the boss, will u let a capable and CHEAP worker go?

I am a programmer I did lots of the different different system can say client request what I also can fulfill.

Yet even a DELL technical support salary also higher than my....
so what the point I keep working at there?

Been discuss with boss about the salary issue but he said... every yr at 200 for me... soon will get 3k . ( my current salary is 1800 )
How long can I get 3k? or why not I go and join a work that can give me 3k straight away instead keep staying there and wait for don't know how many yrs to get the 3K salary?

Am I right?

My salary is 1800 only... so I can give 24 hrs resign notice

And I got talk with boss but... he said... he can't afford much...
and he SHOOT me one word... "If I give you double or triple salary is it possible that you can handle 2-3 man power?"


>.>
I am very regret I join this stupid company and also so STUPID SIGNED THAT AGREEMENT without refer to my friends 1st.
I learned my lesson well this time.

Years ago when I work under this company they just a team without a proper registered company.
( intro by a friend )

After that the company business grow.... last year finally the boss register SDN BHD and every workers ( news and old ) need to sign another new agreement which is pages instead of one peace of appointment letter which I got 3 yrs ago.


So this is the case.

When thru lots company for interviewing... but once they saw my 6 months notice period. I get rejected.
( all of them only willing to wait me 1 month. )


I cannot resign before I got my new job that is risky.

So you see I am stuck in this DAMN SHIT TRAP.

Oh MY... this is SUX..

CURSE HIM !!!!!!

Yes...

I did learned my lesson... a very good one....

CHINESE BOSS are all SUX

NO OT !!!
NO Project BOnus !!!
Year end Bonus also like peanut.. ( one month salary only )


To those pro out there.....

NEVER EVER WORK WITH STINGY CHINESE BOSS !!!

ahjames:

Sorry i didn't get what you mean by that 1. and 2. =/

Ok guys I know what to do now

Thank.


I will throw my letter once I got my paycheck this month.

Hi,

status update...

I just past my resignation letter to HR department


Just stick there 1 month notice. Havn't get any answer from boss if approve or what....

still waiting.....

Yes guys, I resigned and boss didn't keep me for 6 months.
But he did give me 3 months. Minus my 1 month leave I still need to work there for another 2 months.

But I insist I want to leave ASAP. So I give 2 months notice which minus one month leave I only need to work there for another 1 month xD

In one condition, I need to finish the job on my hand with in this last month and hand over others tasks to my juniors ASAP. xD


It is great !! Night mare OFF


One of the director there said... if they need me they will out source to me xD ( earn extra here xD )


Lesson learned !! Never sign any contract or agreement blindly... it is SUX when thing turn to another side xD

Hehe... 6 months is NOT REASONABLE AND NOT ACCEPTED.

even HR ppls also know that.

But if there got ppl so stupid like me.... go and signed it.. then it will become accepted.

So make sure the agreement is review by many trusted ppls before sign it.

Hi, Spanker thank for your advise.

Btw, one of my friend keep asking me to give the 24 hrs leaving notice.

He said.. by giving this company cannot DO ANYTHING TO YOU and can AVOID ALL CONTRACT or AGREEMENT.

WTF is this law? So powerful ?


wonder if I can use it?

Any peoples heard about this rule in Nalaysia law? Or even use before?
