The private college reportedly did not provide them any other alternatives besides dismissal.
: The Industrial Court has ordered a private higher learning institution to compensate 17 lecturers RM1.4 million for unfair dismissal, for reasons unclear for the educators’ retrenchment.
They were awarded between RM51,150 and RM114,767 each in place of unused annual leave, back pay and reinstatement. The company’s witnesses, on the other hand, were not able to convey the “retrenchment selection criteria” even though they attended the “management committee” that decided to terminate the lecturers’ contracts, as quoted.
The lecturers also said they were not offered alternatives aside from retrenchment such as a reduction in pay or working hours, transfer to another department or the university as well as “forcing” them to utilise their unused leave without pay two weeks prior to their dismissal.
