termination without any valid reason

hi good day i have some question regarding my employer, they retrench me without any valid reason and the fact im working for the said employer for almost 3 yrs, to be honest when im starting to work for  them, i dont have a contract signing but i can assure that i have some valid documents that i can present that im being part of the said company. my question is, that the company would easily retrench the employee without any reason??? regarding my separation pay what should be the calculation of my separation if im working there for almost 3 yrs and having above minimum state an example pls.....possible can i get also my 13 month????and if they will not require me for the said payment what should be the case i can file????pls give me some advice thank u and more powers

retrenchment is company's prerogative to prevent losses for as long as you are paid properly.. it should be 1/2 month's salary for every year of service.. and yes, it should include your 13th month pay.. wait first and see how much is your last pay..

sir wt do u mean 1/2 month salary? meaning to say if my salary per month is 9k, 4,500 is the possible rate times 3 yrs of my service?and when is the probable time they can give me the said payment?im just curious and bothered about the situation...thanks and more powers

yes 4,500 x 3 = 13,500.00 will be your retrenchment pay.

they should give this to you upon clearance, together with your pro rated 13th month pay and tax refund if any.

dianna, if you wish to contest your termination, the remedy is to file a complaint at the nlrc. if the company cannot prove that there was proper basis for retrenchment, then you will be deemed to have been terminated illegally
