Termination of employee without following the COVID-19 regulations

Hi,

An employer has terminated an employee during the recent COVID-19 crisis. However, didn't mention any reason on the termination letter.

The employee was paid only 1-month notice pay instead of 3 months. The company also didn't follow any of the 5 measures advised by the government but instead went to terminate the employee straight away.

Can this be taken legally?

Hello.

Generally, you can try to file a case requesting the dues you believe you are entitled to.

It is ultimately the court's decision on how it will view this matter.
