'We were simply presented with the memo and asked to sign. There were no discussions, explanations, or timeframe provided.'
SINGAPORE: An employee shared on social media that her employer “randomly changed the resignation notice periods.”
“We were simply presented with the memo and asked to sign. There were no discussions, explanations, or timeframe provided. I refused to sign it.”However, the new policy introduced incremental changes based on years of service. For employees with 1-2 years of tenure, the notice period remained at 30 days, while those with 3-5 years were required to give 60 days’ notice.
Another commented, “What kind of company is this? Do they know that if they fire you, the notice period should also be 6 months?” Speculations also arose that the sudden changes may target a specific individual with substantial experience who might be planning to leave soon. They said the changes were framed as a blanket policy to avoid singling out the intended target.“There would be some complications as corporations still hold the power, especially in Singapore , but they can’t fire you over this.”
