Withheld Salary From Employer by Techmac00: 3:14pm On Aug 22, 2022
A friend resigned from his job, a day to the end of the month. He did that because he wasn't given an employment letter, didn't sign any contract.

Mgt got angry and pleaded he stayed back for 1-2 weeks to hand over properly. He agreed, only for them to ask him to leave after close of work that same day.

2 days after, salary was paid and he is yet to be paid.

Employment letter or not, you DO NOT resign from a job abruptly without giving the org a chance to get a replacement. You tried to bend their hands and put them in a vulnerable position, now they're doing same to you or your friend.

Imagine, if they had tweeted such act of near sabotage online too

Legally speaking, who is in right and wrong?

In your opinion, what's the way forward? Though the Ministry of Justice, and a Law Firm are now involved on behalf of the employee.

I've noticed people don't respect their employers and they always want to resign in a way it will affect the company negatively.. It served him right. They shouldn't pay him. I will like to advice job seekers always give your company headstart before you resign atleast 2 weeks notice so there can prepare for your departure.

Legally speaking,your guy's only defense is that he didn't sign a contract.

Legally valid, the company can easily say they have not communicated that they will not pay, however due to the situation of his resignation they have to process his final pay and ensure that all "properties" in his possession are duly returned and signed off before he's paid.

Then the company will print documents, back date it and backstamp it..like they didn't need to formally let you know as you have said you don't want to be bound by paper work.

Then they will sue your wicked assss for slandering their image.... Na you go beg tire.

I'm sure your guy was maltreated. Most of us have been there and most of us forfeited the money without dragging

Lol. I like you. You think you know this company or the guy in question.

You have played out everything in your head already.
