I Resigned And Not Paid Should I Sue Them by Krisben4343: 3:57am On Sep 02, 2015 |
Hello Nairalanders? Greetings to you all. Please I have a question about a company I worked and I would need your advice on how to deal with this situation please. For the past 4 years I worked in a Lebanese owned telecom company. The pressure was the type that hardly anyone could bear. When I believed I could not cope any more, especially when the hazard of the job is threatening my life as a young man, I decided to drop my resignation letter immediately so I could do something better with my life. My question now is: 1. Am I not supposed to have a payoff, no matter how small it is, since I have worked for 4 years? 2. Its now 1 month since I left and I have not gotten anything from them yet, does it take that long to get cleared financially? 3. How should I follow up with them to get my pay? Note: some times back the company fired more than 200 field staff a day, and immediately within 2 days they paid them off with 200k each irrespective of how long they worked for them. Why should it be difficult to pay me off since I resigned and not fired? Thanks friends, your matured answer will be appreciated. |

Now.... 1.. In d company policy; do they payoff those who voluntarily resigned? 2. Had they given u any commitment to pay u off? 3. If yes; then u can relax and follow up every time until they pay *but if not, and ur expectation of a payoff is based on assumption, then u r in d long run o(in Adesina's voice). By the way; go back there asap an clear it out with them that u r to be paid.. Try, get a commitment from them that they r going to pay...wish u well. ![]() |

Yes I think u ve a case but, answer some questions 1st. When u first joined what was written on ur contract with the company? Was it stated that u will be paid off? Go and check the contract again then u will see how best to deal with the situation. I don't blame them Lebanese, I blame Adams who bastardised our labour law. |
