I think u av right to take legal action against the unscrupulous termination of your appointment. don't jst back down provided u were not appointed through the back door. why seeking redress? is it his father company or his own company. the owner said i don't need your services again , just go home and plan for your life and build your own dream because u have been building another mans dream.

Sincerely I do wonder why most of we Females are Evil.. She reminds me of my previous female boss... They will tell you they ve nothing against you meanwhile behind you they say and hatch all sort nonsense...

If you ve the will to sue her please do but meanwhile you can leave everything in God's hands and believe she has paved way for you to get to a higher and better place.

My fellow Nairalanders please what should I do?

I was fired on Thursday and no reason was stated in the termination of appointment letter.

Should I go to industrial court to seek redress or write the management to ask the reason why my appointment was terminated, because throughout my 2 months stay in the company I did not receive any notice of warning neither was involved in any fraud case.

Please what should I do?

I was employed as a subordinate under the head of a department in November last year,meanwhile before resigning my appointment in my former place of work,I was the head of the same department.

Right from day one in the new workplace,she started making my work difficult, she did not give me proper orientation and failed to attach me to a trainer,as a matter of fact she said to me and I quote " you should learn how to use company software in two days, in short you should be on your own in three days"

Everyday she makes life horrible for me, she hauls insults at me as If I was a greenhorn in the field. infact there was a day she said I was looking like a slowpoke, that I am too slow for her liking.
A month and some weeks later in the employment,she said she has done her assessment and submitted,that I scored zero in every area,that the fresh graduates perform better than me.

At that point,I sensed she was seeing me as a threat and for peace to reign,I called and tried to pacify her,she said she does not have anything against me.

and being new in the system, I have to learn how to use the software and office procedures,but this madam does not have soft spot for me on small mistakes,she always say this' you don't know anything you better go back to your former place of work'.
I got fed up and reported the matter to the HR,I was told to be patient with her and asked if I wanted redeployment which I said yes.

She relegated me to the state of nonentity by attaching me to an intern( to be assisting an intern).

When my appointment was terminated on Thursday, I was told to go and do clearance, to my amazement when I took my clearance form to her, she was not sympathetic at all rather she said "so fast" and signed instantly.

I knew my sack was orchestrated by her and I want justice for her wicked act.

please how should I go about it?

from the little experience have gathered so far from HRM which says...



A employer must have a good reason for dismissal and a dismissal must be carried out fairly, otherwise the employee may have a personal grievance claim against the employer....


Bro.. U are a star.. As someone said let this be a steppin for u to step up to greater heights.. Sueing them is a waste of time and money.. And even if u eventually win the case.. I cn assure u that u wont be convenient there and they cn always find another means to get u out....


Forget it bro and move on.. just see it as one of those experience u have to pass thru to get to the top.. All is well...

stonecoldcafe:


So sorry. Don't waste ur penny on court; just go back to searching for jobs. I'm sure your reporting to HR was the one that did you in. Next time report her to God and blast MFM type prayers on her head... Die, die, die, all my enemies fall down and die, confusion, confusion, confusionnnnnnnnnnn!

This all sounds like a one-man business where proper organisational processes are lacking.
Clearly, the woman had it in for you from the get-go and she did all she could to make you appear redundant.

I have learnt how necessary it is to research the organisational culture of the potential company which you intend to gain employment in and then make an informed decision before leaving your present company.
I think you can go ahead and sue if you have the time and resources but dont expect much to come out of it; Rather focus more on moving on to your next great job.
When I and my colleague were let go from our first job in 2009, my colleague fought it and refused to move on. As for me I left a day earlier than the termination date and left everything to God while improving my skills and writing other job applications.
Long story short, I landed another job with 5 times my previous pay 2 months later. I later found my way back into the company 2 years later as a superior to all the people who fired me (though in another department) while my colleague fought the company and lost 2 years in the process.

This could just be a blessing in disguise depending on how you react to it.
