I Want To Sue My Employer For Terminating My Appointment Without Reason by samguru(m): 10:30pm On Jan 23, 2016 |
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? 14 Likes 3 Shares |

Thank you all for your contributions,I forgot to add this , When I noticed she was not at peace with me and didn't want me to learn,I stylishly attached myself to guy who taught me how to use the software,when she discovered I could use the software,she stopped giving me assignments. 3 Likes 1 Share |

From all you wrote, I can confidently tell you that the woman is behind the termination of your appointment. What I will advice you is to leave everything in the hands of God.If truly she has wronged you, I believe she can't evade karma. Have always pray to God that throughout my stay on planet earth, I don't want to be a subordinate to any, female in any work environment. Guess what ? God has always granted my wish. I believe God will provide a better Work for you soon. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Look for another job. 1. It will be on record that you took your employer to court and it might hunt you in the future ? 2. They set your case null and void the time she gave you zero on performance. With that, no court will tell an employer to keep a non performing staff. (Not saying u are not) Lesson : Anytime you are given a terrible appraisal, fight it till u get what u deserve as they are simply preparing you for exit. 3. Remember the rule that says "Never outshine your master" always. You must have caused that threat with your approach. Remember you introduce yourself as head of the department you now second. 3. Just let it go and look before you leap next time. All the company lawyer need to defend the company is simply the economic recession and the need to lay off non productive staffs (already documented against u by virtue of the last appraisal) to make the company a bit profitable. Accept my sincere empathy and best of luck. 85 Likes 5 Shares |

Sorry about that, he doesn't have to give u reasons..He could just claim redundancy. However, u re entitled to reasonable notice (usually one month ) or payment in lieu of the notice. If he didn't give notice, u can sue for wrongful termination. 5 Likes |

My brother,if you can,please see a lawyer.if you can get justice,please pursue the matter IF YOU CAN. Employees in Nigeria are on their own.many people don't know that as you have consumer/customer protection,you also have employee protection. Employers especially in the private sector in this country behave as they like. A pity really! 2 Likes |

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... 1 Like |

Employers don't state the reasons for disengagement to avoid legal issues. Moreover the employment letter must have stated that either party may terminate the appointment by giving a specific notice period before or after confirmation. All the same, a good lawyer would help you sort this out. Iy they don't need your services you shouldn't have been lured out of your former job. Good luck as you fight this injustice.
