Hi guys, i just tendered my resignation letter few days ago on 19/6, and i write there i will work until 30/6, because i need to join new company by 3/7.

However my boss keep pujuk me ask me to stay & grow with company, so he rejected my resignation letter.

I am seriously wanna leave this company & join new company by 3/7.

According to my offer letter, my notice period is 2 months.

Since now i only serve 2 weeks, will my company sue me? What will happen to me?

Pls advise, thanks.

I seriously need advise & opinion.

U have to compensate the balance notice. For your case..u have to compensate 1 and half month of your salary

Hold back your salary then sue u depending on how much the hr or manager want to cover their backside

please write name of company and what position you're currently in to better advise.

will/can company sue? as long as you break contract - answer is yes.

can they reject based on the notice time or breaking contract clauses like bonds - answer is yes.

Your offer letter states 2 months notice but you are only giving your current employer 2 weeks. As you can see yourself its not justified.

He cant reject your resignation letter but you are required to serve the notice.Is there any salary in lieu option? If there is you can opt to pay the company the remaining outstanding notice.

Companies generally wont sue but one could never say never.

What do u mean "cover their backside"?

lol you know you have to serve 2 months but so brave decide for yourself that you’re gonna serve 2 weeks?

My colleague can, why me cannot?

did you at least tell your manager that you’re gonna serve 2 weeks and pay in lieu?

This is depending on your HOD/HR discretion. You cant say he can, why me cannot? It does not work that way.

Suggest you to try talking with your superior again.

Have you think through how to pay the remaining 1.5 months to them?

just send to your HR if your boss dont want to accept. Its only a myth that bosses dont accept resignation as HR needs to accept.

1. Request an early release without payment then if it does not work;

2. Ask the new company if the can buy you out, if does not work;

3. Then you have to pay for the balance.

You can resign all you want even 24 hours, your boss need not to accept or reject so long as it has been communicated that your desire to terminate the contract, and it must be with proper notice or payment in lieu of notice, otherwise you may get sued for breach of contract.

If company sue me, what benefit do they have?

That why when ppl didn't inform ur new company ur notice period. And now sudah kantoi. Good luck

Make u as an example. See how ur boss and HR don't like u.

That is not how it works you dimwitted pleb.

prepare to pay 1 months and 2 weeks salary.. easy.

You think company put notice period for fun one issit?

in the end, its about money, very few people take it personally.
tell your new company to pay the early release.

Last time bujang me always giving out my resignation letter first then months remaining only i start looking for job, my job always on demand sure ada slot just problem of lokasi salary i tak kisah

Some company i giving out 2 months notice end up ask me is that okay if i just serve the remaining 2 week and I'm lagi happy because they no longer can afford me

You need to becomes so skillful like me then you no need worries after resign tak ada kerja

Cheers

you break the contract. HR can sue u as u leave earlier.. so u wont get any pay for the month. and u might have to pay for the balance to cover up until 2 month of notice. why no nego with new company u 2 month notice? if they want in urget, ask them pay on behalf. else your own pocket to cover ald...

they get money... they also need time to find new recruits to replace your current position. 1st job? that how it's work mate... some even notice prior 3 month in advance. that how the procedure works...

if u got money u can leave within 24hr with short notice. as long as u clear the debts. if new company call HR for clarification, u might get bad reputation.

kesian the new company hire idiots

HR said jumpa di pejabat buruh nanti

What job always in demand? So lucky

my old time every Field on demand , nowadays just over populated on every Field

renting room also must give notice if short notice ur deposit burn

buy out je la.

if your heart is not there no point to continue

If buy out, but i not enough time do handover task list, is this ok?

i guess that depends on your company.

i heard people resigned and say buyout money just deduct from salary.
no need pay that month salary.
that company notice period is 1 month
boss havent approve, she already decide for herself & jalan

If your salary is small then it'll be a lost for them to pursue you legally. The legal fees alone will cost more than your 1.5months salary..which in return costs even more for them.

I've seen exiting staffs in my company who took early leave their small salary is just less than RM3k so when HR try to threaten them with lawsuits, the exiting staff showed middle finger and walked out of the office.

Ended up did not pursue because legal fees more than to let off.

Bro, don't listen to all this replies trying to scare you.
If you're a small fish, truth is they won't do a thing. Not worth their while to go after you.
If you're a big fish, director level and such, then yes, it's a different matter.

Friend, what money they get?
Lawyer fees will be way more than the money they get.

Exactly this!
I see majority of /k people here have a hard time understanding this concept.

Yes i am just small fish, i am not even Manager level.

My basic salary is RM4700, is this low or high?

Then no worries bro, they won't go after you.
Maybe will just threaten you with legal action but they know damn well it's not worth their while.

Still low for them to want to initiate legal action.
Lawyer fees and all that will be way more than that.
In the end, they will rugi if they proceed with legal action.

seems like ts just wanna hear what he wants to hear 💀 good luck

Lack of ethics and responsibility.

No wonder small fish remains small fish.

u are asking him to take the risk..i am employer myself. I would surely take action whether its worth or not. If i dont, others will follow..all no need follow notice.

1.5 months of RM4.7k is more than RM5k yes worthwhile to pursue legal action against you.

Anything less than RM3k don't bother. They won't take the chance to spend more money to hire lawyers and waste the time.

Ts bodo no such thing as reject resign. TS strawberry gen confirm. And what is your position? Only 2 weeks notice??

My position is Senior Sales Executive.

My boss reject my resignation, why u blame me bodoh?

I wanna leave urgently, that's why i just hope to serve 2 weeks notice.

You are right.

The employer should do the right thing.
Should sue these law breaking employees irregardless or the amount.
Else all the employees will do the same.

When laws are broken, it should be enforced.
When people don't enforce it, everyone will break it and no one will respect it.

That's why we see so many motorcycles ignoring the red light and other traffic rules.
They all believe there is no enforcement.

Agreement in offer letter still the rule. Who can or who cannot are not important now as the owner or management of the company free to decide to use labour law or close one eye to treat resignation matter. Discuss with them in the nice way, not the hard way! If they treat u the hard way due to yr attitude,then u need to pay the consequences.

Not to make you worry further but if you're from MNC or a significantly sized organization with a dedicated legal department, better don't take the risks. Complete your 2 months fully and leave with a friendly gesture.

Ask you new employer to give you some time. If they insists that you join immediately, then also your new company might not be a good company after all which is not understanding.

Then pay compensation in lieu of notice.
Since your notice is 2 months and you want to leave in 2 weeks, then pay 1.5 months salary to your employer.

That's what I did last time.
My new employer wanted me to join them in 1 month and my notice period is 2 months.
My new employer paid my old employer for the short notice and they accepted it.

employer not going through labour office? they got lawyer in there.

It's been 2 months ago you asked and some of us already advise you to tender at that time.. if you had done so you already leaving in peace no need to scratching head think about the consequences...

You need to try to discuss with your current employer instead of planning for FFK, i believe deep in your mind you already has this plan but you still open thread seeking people siding with you so you get the bravery to do so...

If you stay in the same job field, you might get bad reputation as your managers or Boss may speak about your attitude. Trust me, it's a small field I jump a few company but sometime I'm still unexpected linked with my previous managers or colleagues when working on some projects...

Attached thumbnail(s)

This.

Word of advice TS, please don't use the argument 'My colleagues can, why I cannot' IRL, makes you look childish.

Definitely bodoh. Employer cannot reject resignation.

Jibby did that.

Preparing a legal letter of demand to the employees are not much especially if the company got attached legal firm.

that was the sentence that pissed me off more than the fact that he asked the same shit 2 months ago but didnt even jump back then
if he had jumped back then and served the 2 months the issue is gone

the other thing is this TS has to be a kid or something. boss reject resignation? wtf??? how can an employer reject a resignation?

he is in sales no less, want to exit out quit? stop meeting your quota and they will kick you out within a month's notice. easier than resigning.
he is so full of shit and abusing the serious K thread

Can I know your age and education level, and how long you have been in this company and the old vs new salary?

I wondering what make you make such a move that burns bridges.

Just serve 2 months notice lo. Leave like a boss

Judging from he can I cannot. Now I really curious how TS close sales. Hahaha

Becareful TS, i seen many time like this for zoomer and x generation, they think they can do whatever they want, wait until your company decide to bring to industrial court to fight against you, this can happen 50/50 chance if they are mad enough.

from my not so popular advice, u can consider telling them not to pay anything , free of charge work equal of 2 month salary

or


pay the remaining balance salary.


Good luck, next time please inform carefully and be transparent.

U are not getting a cent for the days that you work until last day. If you have leave also burn to pay notice in liue that's it

Pls note you are creating inconvenience to your company. It's impossible to hire, onboard train. Get system. Ready in two weeks. That's why company have the two month noticed. I am very sure your new company can wait if they really want you.

Be mindful if I am the boss, if you do this two weeks notice with Ur current boss high changes you will do the same with the new company. U decide what perception you want to create for your new company.

Get the new company to buy out n pay the current company. Fair n Square.

Are u tagging the wrong person?

Eh I wasn't ragging TS ke? Sorry was sleep lowyat.net surfing.

This overall shows TS wanna ppl to agree with him when u said otherwise they don't want to hear.

This is similar like those jokers who put down payment let said Toyota Vios, then come and ask is it a good car. Those are seeking agreement on what they did is correct.


And as mentioned Employer didn't even had rights to stop you from resign, but they can stop your early release. Lol

If the employer wanna to play TS and make him example. GG lor.

If the ceo screw the hr and ur manager say why let this idiot leave the company, then they say will sue him to get back the money. If everyone chill then you also will chill

dont give notice and took off immediately

fk to yr boss face wana reject konon

if they sue you then you said they force you setel

What do u mean "they force me setel"?

All those who say if his salary is low, the company won't sue because legal fees higher than his salary, you people forget that most companies have their own legal team. Salary already paid for whether they sue or no sue. Rather than goyang kaki, better to show that they are useful if you know what I mean

One week left. TS please update your situation on the resigned date, really curious how are you gonna handle this situation with your old and new company.

Ade telur cabut overnight. Leave all those company property on your desk.

Take video and snap picture for evidences.

curious apa status, ts kindly update

LOL first time heard resignee can say when they can leave, usually HR will come out when you can leave after deducting all the leave to off set, if you want to cut short your stay, you need to ask the new company to buy you out.

U 3 year old kid ka

weird, last month ask, this month ask again, so TS is playing 3 companies now?

I just repost something from Donovan & Ho website https://dnh.com.my/employees-who-resign-without-notice/

TL;DR - It costs the company nothing to file a claim if the employee's salary is less than RM 5,000 per month

it will serve as a warning to others. imagine if all others do the same giving an immediate or short notice how the office going to arrange others to take over your works.

Option 1 impossible, especially at current economy.

Option 2 should be deal with new employer before signing offer letter and commit the start date. Seems like ts didn't do this, so rule out.

Only option 3 is available, topkek. And with this, he basically spoil his relationship with his boss and company in addition to forking out own money.

Good lesson to learn anyway.

They won't sue you la, dun listen to those ppl, unless you are super high pay like the ceo or etc.

If you just a small fart, the fees to sue you would have been more than the 2 months you owe them, and not to mention the additional hassle.

dude u hv got the offer back in May and drag the feet to submit resignation letter. the notice period is for company to look for replacement and handover of task for smooth transition

1)why u did not submit letter by end May?
2)why u did not inform new company that ur notice period is 2 months? if they need u urgently, they will pay for u the gap
3) why burn the bridge n damage ur reputation. the industry is small and future potential employer might take note of it
4) why share ur irresponsible action in lowyat? expecting getting acknowledge?

If I were a good lawyer, I would probably do it in such a way whereby the judge will rule in such a way that will penalize in the most harshest way possible.

But I dun think there are many such lawyers in Malaysia

So many said TS is libel to compensate notice period in full (remaining 1 month, 2 weeks) yet TS believes TS is not at fault.
Easy way don't want then let employer teach the hard way.

1)why u did not submit letter by end May?

im curious on this as well lmao, why wait until late of june to tender

Even if you are buying out with short notice period, you will already be burning a lot of bridges.

And here you are talking about leaving with serving any notice period and no compensation… good luck

He can't reject your resignation but you need to pay back the amount for early release.

Lmao might as well main hilang.
Make sure your current exiting company and colleagues not talking bad behind you during ur future background checks

And I still dun understand why he is so irresponsible.
Or he is just the useless type.

Best case scenario, they won't pay your final month's salary and also ask you to compensate them for the remaining month.
If you want your new company to pay for it, that is normally negotiated before signing on the new offer letter.

Worst case scenario, in your new company, if you have a 6 months probation period, during probation period if their HR do a check on you and found out from the previous company that you didn't pay, you might not get confirmed. I have done that to one of my new joiners before. I made sure that he paid off his old company first before I made HR confirm him.

Just pay the difference in notice period Vs actual last day. Its up to employer discretion if they want to accept but usually they will take it.

be a gentleman
follow notice period properly, or pay in lieu if wanna leave early

everyone popcorn ready ?

No company can reject your resignation letter.
But company can ask for compensation from you if the contract says that you need to give 2 months notice period as you already signed it.
Best if your new company can buy-out your remaining notice period.
If not then you have few choices:
1. Pay company $$ for those notice period that you cannot serve.
2. Nego with your boss to release you instead.
3. Ask new company to buy-out your remaining notice period.
4. Maybe a better way but I don't know about it.

Don't burn bridges. But you already did.

Good luck

bro

if u die today ( touch wood ), they will find replacement within a week or two, due to operation needs
