Termination
Termination
Dear Maam:
This is in relation to your letter dated May 05, 2017 which I received last
May 9, 2017 for the Return to Work Order. I personally regret to inform your
office that I am formally resigning from my position as Operation-in-Charge
effective immediately for personal reasons.
As your letter states, I was already AWOL (Absence Without Leave) since
April 18, 2017. As of this date I am already AWOL for more than 15 days.
And base on SNAP MOVERS CO. employees Handbook particularly page 23
on Company Code of Conduct under Section 19 which states Absence
without leave of 6 consecutive days or more, the penalty is DISMISSAL, the
company should have immediately terminated my employment through
dismissal but instead you send me letters for return to work.
Although the companys policy requires that I should be serving at least one
(1) month in advance to terminate my employment, I could not do so as I
am no longer interested in going back. And our Labor Law provides that I
can terminate my employment anytime if there is a serious breach in the
employer-employee relationship. One example is you hold my last months
salary without any reason and that alone constitutes willful breach in our
employer-employee relationship. It is against Companys policies to hold any
salary without any justifiable reason as it is the companys desire to pay all
employees wages and salaries. There is nothing in the handbook or
company policy to hold your salary with or without any valid reason as such
would merit as involuntary servitude which is against our Philippine Labor
Laws
With this, thank you so much for your understanding in this matter. For your
perusal and information.
Sincerely,
NORMAN L. LEQUIN
