Mga kabayan tanung ko lang kong may karapatan pa ba ang previous employer na mag habol kahit may exit clearance ka sa kanila?

Puede bang mag-habol ang employer kahit na may exit clearance na silang inisyu sa employee? Depende. Kasi, ang exit clearance ay ebidensiya lamang na ang isang empleyado ay sumailalim na sa clearance process. Wala siyang liabilidad na pinansiyal sa kanyang employer na maaaring ibawas sa mga benepisyong dapat ay matanggap niya tulad ng last salary.

Ngayon, kung halimbawa’y matapos na ang empleyado’y nabigyan na ng exit clearance ay saka nadiskubreng may atraso pala siya na grounds for termination of employment o di kaya’y grounds para sa criminal case, ibang usapan na iyon.

Ang exit clearance ay maiging ebidensiya na wala kang kasalanan o atraso sa iyong employer. Na ang habol nila sa iyo ay afterthought laman o paghihiganti lamang para mahirapan kang kumuha ng panibagong trabaho o di kaya’y para lamang masira ang iyong reputasyon.
Kung halimbawa may non-disclosure agreement kayo o di kaya’y may agreement kang pinirmahan na hindi ka magta-trabaho sa mga kumpanyang ka-kompetensiya ng iyong dating employer, ayun, may habol pa sila sa iyo.

Kung halimbawa’y may nadisubreng anomaly sa mga accounts mo – ayung, habol din iyon. Kung halimbawa’y nagbibigay ng impormasyon sa mga ka-kompetensiya ng employer mula sa kumpanya, ayon, habol din iyon.
Ang suma total, ang ‘habol’ ay kailangan may ebidensiya.
