I'm Japanese who has been worked in the Philippines for 2 years
I would like to share the things which happened to me last week and would like to have some advise.
I started working at my previous company from last October as probationary employee .
Last week when I went to the office ,my superior told me top management decided not to hire you as regular employee .I was really shocked because haven't expected this happened to me .
And then HR gave me the notice which said they end the contract by 17th February due to falling falling to meet the performance standard set by the company .
I got this notice on 16th February .
Then my superior told me you don't need to come to office tomorrow also can leave company as soon as I sarrender things which provided from the company.
Is it legal way to terminate probationary ?
They still hold my passport for downgrading working visa .
I cannot go back to Japan and can't apply for new job without passport .
My Filipino friends told me I'm entitled to receive salary for March and April because the employer is the one terminated my co tract and they didn't notice me this in advance .Is it true ?
I home somebody gives me some advices.
Thank you for reading this .
