Urgent Assistance Required: Forced Resignation and Contractual Violations

陳情內容

Dear Ministry of Labor, ? ? I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding my current employer's actions, which I believe violate my rights under labor laws in Taiwan. My name is Urooj Murad and I have been employed at Juntou International School Nantou for over a year, and I am facing significant issues regarding the termination of my employment. ? ? The key points I would like to highlight are as follows: ? ? Forced Resignation: ? My employer has been pressuring me to resign instead of accepting a termination notice. I was warned that if I choose termination, the termination date will be set intentionally to disadvantage me. I was told that resigning would allow my departure to take effect immediately, but termination would remain dated as January 9, 2024, leaving me with no viable options. ? ? Violation of Contract Terms: ? My employment contract clearly states that I am entitled to a 30-day notice period in the event of termination, as I have been employed at this institution for more than one year. However, I have not received any written notice of termination, nor have I been granted the 30-day notice period stipulated in my contract. ? ? Impact on Immigration and Visa Status: ? I had informed my principal, Mr. Howard, in advance of my plans to travel from January 10 to February 7, 2024, utilizing a combination of Chinese New Year leave, annual leave, and unpaid leave. However, my employer has scheduled the termination date as January 9, 2024, intentionally jeopardizing my ability to apply for a job-seeking visa. This visa is a benefit I am entitled to as a graduate of a Taiwanese university. I have contacted the immigration office, and they confirmed that this termination date would prevent me from re-entering Taiwan after my planned trip. ? ? The actions of my employer have caused immense stress and financial uncertainty. The termination date appears to have been intentionally set to create obstacles for me, both professionally and personally. ? ? I kindly request your intervention to: ? - Ensure my employer follows proper labor laws, including providing the required 30-day notice for termination. ? - Investigate the coercion I am facing to resign under pressure. ? - Protect my rights as a foreign resident and employee in Taiwan. ? - Give me enogh time to renew my ARC upon my return or before leaving for my trip, I can't cancel my trip as it's my sister's wedding and I am visiting my family after 3 years. ? ? I would appreciate your guidance on how to proceed further. Please let me know if additional documentation is required to support my case. ? ? Thank you for your time and support. ? ? Sincerely, ? Urooj Murad
