Court chairman D Paramalingam found that company director Sim Foo Yoke had wrongfully reduced stepson Wong Jun Kit’s salary beginning October 2018, seven months after the death of his father.“The salary reduction was first imposed commencing October 2018. It is certainly no coincidence that the Shah Alam High Court suit, wherein the claimant challenged the will of the late Wong Kok Wan was also filed in October 2018.
“No evidence was put forward before this court that the company had consulted the claimant before imposing the said reduction in his salary,” Paramalingam said in a 33-page award released today.He said following the non-receipt of salary for the months of February and March 2019, Jun Kit had acted “reasonably” and in a “timely manner” by demanding the restoration of his full salary the following month, which the company had failed to do.
“The company had not produced any evidence whatsoever of the claimant’s purported unsatisfactory performance. The very first time the issue was raised was after the claimant had issued notice of constructive dismissal,” he said in the award. “The company director, who is the claimant’s stepmother, could not see eye-to-eye after he initiated a suit questioning the last will of ,” Paramalingam said.
