What rights exist after pressured resignation and workplace harassment?
In April 2026, my Company Director advised me to search for another job and submit my resignation. On 5 May 2026, after repeated reminders from HR, I submitted my resignation with a 90-day notice period. However, after only 23 days, on 28 May 2026, HR visited my cabin and instructed me to hand over my responsibilities as part of the exit process. I requested clarification regarding my full and final settlement before proceeding. At the same time, I received an email from the Vice President directing me to complete the handover to another staff member by the next day as per management’s decision. Following this incident, I took casual leave for two days and did not attend the office. I also posted about the incident on LinkedIn and tagged the company and HR department. The company is now demanding that I remove the post, claiming that it harms the company’s goodwill and violates the terms of my appointment letter. I have also received emails directing me to resume work and complete the handover process. I am feeling mentally distressed and uncomfortable returning to the workplace. What are my legal rights and options in this situation?
If you resigned with a 90-day notice period, the company should generally follow the terms of your employment contract regarding notice, handover, and full-and-final settlement. You should communicate only through written emails and seek clarification regarding your employment status, notice pay, and settlement. Avoid remaining absent without proper approval, as it may affect your position. Preserve all emails, resignation records, and communications. If you believe you are being unfairly pressured or retaliated against, consult an employment lawyer before taking further action. For further legal assiatance contact us on our helpline number.
