Work highlights
- Defended AYER Holdings Berhad successful in the Industrial Court which held that the dismissal of the claimant was with just cause and excuse and that since full and free opportunity had been given to the claimant to present himself at the Domestic Inquiry and defend himself.
- Defended Ideal Quality Sdn Bhd successfully in the Industrial Court which held that for an employee occupying a senior or managerial role, the need for warning and opportunity to improve is much less apparent before a decision to terminate is made.
- Defended Glenmark Pharmaceuticals (M) Berhad successfully in the Industrial Court which reaffirmed the position that a mutual separation agreement mutually and freely arrived at between the parties to dissolve the relationship of an employee and his employer must be given effect to and that in law it is not a dismissal.
