Termination without Violating the Law October 17, 2010

Much as we like to retain employees there are situations where the services of employees have to be terminated.

The situations could be due to retrenchment or lay off due to poor business, business reorganization, relocation, downsizing; poor performance by employees over a period of time; poor performance or unsuitability of a probationer resulting to non-confirmation in employment; misconduct and indiscipline; and others

As is widely known, badly handled cases have ended up in Industrial Courts which has reinstated employees to their former positions with backdated wages. The industrial relation statistics show that total of RM25million compensation was involved due to unfair or unjustified termination. This costly mistake could be easily avoided if you know the right way to handle employee termination without violating the law.
What is this workshop about?

This program addresses the various situations for termination, remedies before termination, the legal methods of termination, and how to terminate employees so as not to end up in the Industrial Court due to employees' claims of unfair, illegal or constructive dismissal. Industrial court cases are also discussed which saw employers being in the wrong for making human and technical mistakes when terminating employees.
