3 cases cited (0 SG, 3 foreign)

Catchwords

I am of the opinion that the Claimant cannot be said as has been constructively dismissed by the Company when the Claimant himself had on his own accord, abandoned his employment with the Company. Memorandum of Agreement dated 22.4.2021 has been entered to by both parties for the purpose for the Claimant to return to his original position but this was disregard by the Claimant himself. Therefore, I found it unjustified to conclude that the Claimant had been constructively dismissed.
