I was placed on garden leave bro, meaning I was not allowed to masuk office while I serve that period .. So i had like few weeks of free time just sitting at home although no garden to tend to heh..

Arrange your farewells then, always good to leave with good feelings intact, industries are small so connections always matter.

I'd wish they put me on garden leave rather than sitting here and answer phones

Farewells already arranged, sent out goodbyes and handed over the work to the new guy already.

Hi is it better to resign or be terminated? What I get from googling is that it is better to be terminated.
Will future companies be able to know that I was fired?

Dear All,

A close friend of mine (not me, srsly) has tendered her resignation from the company not too long ago.

The resignation has been accepted and her last day and notice period was informed to her a week after the resignation. She suppose to serve her notice up till mid of August.

However, just after the raya holiday, she was told that she has been relocate/transfer and assigned a "special task" to an store outlet reporting to store manager under operation team. She is  a HQ senior exec level staff.

Her superior verbally claim that such changes are due to 'conflict of interest' but never justify the misconduct she has committed without solid proof/evidence.

Such changes is deem as a serious demotion, insults and inconveniences due to the fact that she travels to work straight from walking to LRT nearby house and the LRT will be able to reach her office straightly.

Her offer letter clearly stated her as HQ staff that clocks in at 8.30am and out at 6.30pm as a senior exec. level staff responsible of doing merchandising/buying task but also she company has the right to ask employee to transfer. But did not include clause that states the employee must be able to travel, as she is a desk bound job.

The reassignment/transfer will be a major variation from her existing job scope and no official memo was given to her. Only thing is a JD. She was told to clock in at 8.30 at HQ but disallowed to enter office and then travel to the assigned outlet and wait for the shopping mall to open at 10am then she may allows to leave at 6.30pm. This is considered lenient as they deserve the right to ask her to follow the operation shift time of 10am to 10pm.

To her, this is completely unacceptable and she ask to leave the company immediately. The company then without hesitation offer her 2 optinos. Option 1 being that she leaves immediately but without salary/compensation pay-in lieu up to the last day of her notice period. The company will only pay her until the day after raya and the balance of her AL.

If she refuse, then she must take option 2 and go to outlet store to serve her remaining notice period there and disallowed to enter the HQ office. This utterly absurd arrangement and a trick by the company to force people out without paying them the compensation.

Because of the transfer and reassignment is done in such a short notice and the nature of it being a serious demotion and variation from the existing job plus an insults to her, in a way it is a dismissal forced by the company instead of the staff asking to leave.

Anyone know what is her rights and would it be fair to demand the company to compensate the salary up till the last day of the notice period?

Thanks

I've just recently resigned a local company to work overseas. First, it came to my shock, Hasil taxed so much, like basically half of a month salary. That's ok I already move on. Then when I work overseas I found out that when you resign from a company, according to the law the company is compulsory to provide a certain amount of money as "appreciation". Like 10 years of working entitled for 10 months salary. What I want to know in Malaysia, is there such thing as "appreciation" money after you resign?
*I've been in the company for 12 years

Hi, i want to ask about resignation. My company required me to tender 3 month for resign. If short notice, i have to pay compensation to company.

Here what i am trying to do, i don't want to come to work after 1 month tender although there is 2 month remaining. I will tell the HR that i am absent from work and cut my salary. This maybe unethical but does it allowable in sense of law. 

Please advise TQ

Hi guys. Thinking of resigning as well. Right now im working as a sales engineer for a company about less than a month. Its my first job and to be truth was a bit out of my hand since my parents forced them to me (my fathers friend is close to the MD).

I know sales is not the most attractive of jobs and i was pretty much expecting it but after doing it for about a month especially the cold callings, i really could not forced it to me. Go to work stress and leaving work was a relief

Is it ok to resign or will they chase me due to the legal matters..

hi all, I need help with this situation.

1. Can a company “let go” (official letter no state termination/retrenchment/firing, just straight say notice period etc) employee without saying any reason (just give notice company financial not good)

2. Can a company use employee’s annual/replacement leaves during the notice period? Without giving employee choice of using the leave or not. eg. got 30 days notice, still got 10 days leave so employee no need come office after 20 days notice (still pay whole month salary)

Many thanks to all here. Really need to understand these issues.

Terminating without any reason - wouldn’t this count as unjust dismissal?

Thanks bro. Will try the first method to negotiate. I heard some companies just put 3 months to deter employee from resigning but dont really care if they pay or not. Not sure how true is that.

Hi, i still have some annual leaves including bring forwarded annual leaves from last year, after i give resignation letter, by default HR will convert my unutilized annual leaves to money or automatic offset my notice if i did not tell them my choice? either offset or convert to money. The bring forwarded leave can be convert to money?

My old company got counter offer me for another position after i give resign letter at this month, if i accept the offer and take back the resign letter, normally do i still entitle for bonus if bonus will be give to all employee at this month?

Hi. I got similar case with others but need your guys advice.
Receive offer from company B and already tender resign to company A
Company A want counter offer but I already sign offer from company B but still not start working.
Question, if company A offer better (which I work now) than company B, how is the process? Do I need to tell company B that I will not join them although I already sign the offer letter?
Reason for leaving : underpaid
Thanks

Thank you for your input. The current company counter me same amount I get from new company. Job scope wise still same and the difference is distance
old company : near
new company : far ( KL vs kelana Jaya)

Thanks bro for the suggestion..so afraid that by mentioning my 3 month notice could affected badly my chances of securing the jobs..frankly speaking i got no more interest to work wth my current employer..

But 2 months is the common practice among most of the employers wo...

Morning guys..i got an iv session last month..n just before raya holiday about 2 weeks ago the hr had called me again regarding my confirmation on expected salary and future offer letter..do i need to tender resign letter now or just wait for the official offer letter first?fyi, i need to provide 3 months notice to my current employer

Hi guys, my company is currently forcing me to resign as the HR manager has personal conflict with me. But in work I am performing and do nothing wrong. Should I just tender resignation letter as requested or is there anything that I can do? Feeling disappointed and unfair at this point. I always saw in drama that company need to compensate if fire staff, is it a normal practice in Malaysia? Someone please help me as I don't know who to ask....

i browsed through the thread many times, correct me if i'm wrong here; its best to hand in the resignation letter after we received an offer letter in writing yes?

so what if the future employer is asking when we can join so that they can prepare the letter of appointment then what should you say? fyi, the future employer alredy knew that you need to hand in the standard 1 months notice.

is it safe to give an estimated date?

also is it normal for companies to cover only the employee in group medical? or its old school these days for that and many opt to do the whole family?

Company has just agreed to reimburse me for training worth 4K, but wants to bond me for 1 year. My monthly salary is currently about 6k.

1. Is this standard/ reasonable by Malaysian practice?
2. If I resign after 6 months, what do I have to pay - training cost of 4k, or 6 months salary?

Kinda confused, as my first instinct is to just turn down the offer, but am reasonably sure that that will put me in the management's shit list

Well, pretty much (I've actually already gone for the training by paying out of pocket first. This is for them to re-imburse me. Before they pay, they want me to agree to the bond

is it advisable to ignore the given last day service given?

i would like to end it on x date while company says end it on y date. so per say i just left on the date i want and bugger off what happens?

in my contract it doesnt say if i reach a certain seniority level i need to serve more days.

a) for sure i think they wont pay me.
b) legal or such?
in my view i already done my part in giving in the notice so probably i would end it on the date i want. i did think of resigning on 24hrs notice before giving my 1 month notice.

If I resign on 1-Aug with notice period of 2 months and used up my annual leave to serve my second month, as a result, last working day is 31-Aug and official last day is 30-Sep. Can I start work with my new employer on 1-Sep?

Hi guys,

My current company have this clause;

The Company also reserves the right not to allow   
you to offset any unconsumed leave against your notice of resignation.

So that mean I i give them 1 month notice, my AL cannot be use to offset the resignation day right?

Hi guys, I need your advice on this.

I got a job through an recruitment agency that had me sign a contract stating that I must work for at least 6 months before resignation however they did not give me a copy due to discretion/ policy.

Fast forward after working 4 months, I did not get along with the company and quit. Now will the recruitment company fine me a certain amount of money? As they did not state in the contract how much as I can remember. What happen if I do not want to pay them?

I got this offer for an mnc which is quite well known and I did not think much tat time as I though I would spend at least a year 
Would they find out that I had resign??
