Is there such a thing??!! (employee's right & liability)

ditzy SG

there's something i need to know......

in SG, for example, you work for a company, and u make some mistakes, and cost the company to lose around US$70 - US$150.

does the company have the right to deduct this amount from my salary??!!!!

WTH???? what about those guys who didn't manage to win project bids and cause the company to lose US$1.5 million etc.? do the company ask them to pay up???!!

anyone who is familiar with SG laws or the corporate world here, pls advise.

i'm not sure if i'm being taken advantage of.

serious only, pls.

and btw, it was NEVER STATED on my employment contract that the company will deduct my salary if they happen to lose $$$ due to my mistake.

Back to the topic. Hello, how does not winning the tender equate to losing company's money?

No tender won, no contract awarded, no project expenses, no money earned, no money lost.

Kutter SG

someone just spilled the beans....

congratulations

u have been awarded the following:

now lets try to link the USB cable in

Don't even get me started about the damn cable. I was trying to link it to getting his worth on the 15 dollar prepaid card, the black and decker drill that can't really drill thru ceremics or wood or whatsoever, going on to the kinky clock mechanism from art friend at taka SC. How about his potential vietnamese wife and shaolin kungfu show now airing on saturday nights instead?

Sounds like an inept plan to kill David Carradine.

... wait a minute.

ditzy SG

Speaking about employee's rights and liabilities, you don't even dare go up against your folks wanting to marry you off to a foreign bride, what makes you think you'll go up to your boss?

the guy tat died by his own dick?

hello, this topic is only related to that pre-paid card topic, not any other topics, ok?!

anyway, the black and decker thing is related to the ceramic / wood + clock mechanisim + artfriend at taka.

vietnamese wife is not related to anything, nor is that shaolin kungfu.

now, pls fark off and stop li-siaoing me!!!!!

fudgester SG

thanks all..........no....it's less than 1/4 of my salary......

what i'm shocked to know is that how come companies don't provide protection for workers one?

anyway ah, elindra, the matter is not as simple as booking air ticket wrongly lah.....there's some wrong info being passed around and i didn't check carefully either.....KNN....

Bingo. You didn't check properly enough.

Ergo, it's all your fault, and you owe the company money for this screwup.

Losing a tender bid is not the same thing at all, and I won't go into details, because ditzy already has.

Sheesh....

its time to look for a better company.

i once sent a container of pipes (wrong size) to indonesia resulting in a loss of 7k.

my swiss boss said, "its ok. people make mistake. just be carefull next time."

GHoST_18 SG

im surprised u got a job...

Cool-gal SG

but seriously, i think most company practises tat..

depend on the nature of ur work..

u work in travel agency?? maybe tats why its not cover..

the risk is ter, so u have to be extra careful lor..

i work in electronics store, if i sell the wrong price, if HQ noes abt it, i have to pay..

if goods kana stolen due to negliences, oso have to pay.

bloody hell one la...

MetalGear SG

er.. pls change job.. companies which operate on such a niao and tight budget, pls dun bother man.

I once lost 30-40k USD for my company because I bought the wrong futures month as a trader. But of coz I made much more for my company for the year.

But company wants to deduct 150 from ur salary.. pls... give it up. u hv more pride

kopiosatu SG

the company would be happy to release him

first they deduct the money for the suffering they have under him for being an incompetent moron

Nikar 3 SG

thanks for all your kind, kind replies, guys.....yeah, for those of you who made your company lose 7k or 30k - 40k USD and boss didn't even ask u to pay, i seriously admire and envy you guys.......

actually, my boss very niao.....even office stationery gotta buy myself.....haiz......

lots of things also want to save......printer ink print one more character also cannot since it wastes 0.000000001% of the printer toner's ink.....and 1 piece of paper can recycle 3 times before it finally gets thrown away....

anyway, got fragged by him just now over this issue which i posted in my 1st post........screamed at me in front of my colleagues, my supervisors, my company's visitors and clients (they happen to be there)

i lost all my face, all my pride.......haiz......

but after this scolding, he's given me a wake-up call and i'll just be more careful in future. haiz.....

actually, all these happened cos' i was trying to help someone ease their workload, but everytime i try to be helpful, i get into trouble.

sometimes i'm really confused....it's like human nature to help others but i was thinking if don't help, then maybe life will be better.....but really hard to change my nature.

my biggest regret in life is that i'm not born a nasty, uncaring bastard.
