- 员工为购买价值RM488的镜片向公司claim钱,然而他在填申请报销的表格时,却是选择“牙科”为选项。公司之后以他填写假资料来claim钱为由,将他解雇。
- 员工到劳资关系部投诉被公司无理解雇,不过他的申请被工业法庭驳回。工业法庭认为公司是在有正当理由下将他解雇。员工到高等法庭申请Judicial Review。
- 高等法庭指出,员工一开始就有向公司承认本身的claim有误,并为此错误道歉。他也同意退还RM 488给公司。法庭也强调,当初员工所提交的单据清楚列明是用来购买眼镜的镜片,很明显他是无意欺骗雇主或提交虚假的报销(false claim)。法庭质疑公司的财务部门并没有核实员工的claim,而是直接批准他的申请。财务部门在发现有关单据是用来购买眼镜镜片时,理应拒绝员工的claim,然后对他采取合适的纪律处分。
- 高等法庭认为,员工固然有错;但不至于严重到需要被解雇;因为他并无意提交虚假的报销。而且他在公司工作长达9年,并无任何纪律处分的记录。
- 公司之后上诉至上诉法庭。
- 上诉法庭不同意高庭的判决。上诉庭认为,员工的行为属于严重的不当和违纪行为。这是因为这将导致雇主不再信任他,无法继续雇用他。We also agree with the Appellant that in such circumstances, there was a significant element of dishonesty in the Respondent’s misconduct which was in conflict with the trust and responsibility reposed in him by virtue of the fiduciary relationship between them as employer and employee. We are of the opinion that the Appellant as the employer cannot now be reasonably expected to continue the employment of the Respondent, with the issue of the Respondent’s integrity and honesty being at the forefront of their mind. There will no longer be any trust and confidence as between the Appellant and the Respondent should the Respondent’s employment be continued or reinstated。
- 上诉法庭批准了公司的上诉,判定员工被解雇是合理的。
