Can I claim compensation for arbitrary termination after I signed the cancellation papers?

I was terminated from service without any solid reason just citing Administrative Reasons for the termination.

Can I claim compensation for arbitrary termination after I signed the cancellation papers and my visa has already been canceled?

Yes. You can file a labor complaint within one year of your visa cancellation.

You can also ask for arbitrary dismissal compensation through the court.

However, please note that the award of arbitrary dismissal compensation is based on the discretion of the court.

If you signed, you can't.

You will sign as you received your salary and end of services, don't sign.

But I was pressurized to sign. I have a WhatsApp message.
