Life after TTSH

life at ttsh .. have made me feel younger and energetic.. thanks to all my lovelies ashikin, fiona, aisya, aziza, juria, ida, maybelle ... kelly ..wendy.. azleen .. jus to name a few .. Besides just working for the organisation, keeping the standards as per JCI, and caring for the sick and those hard work  when some day we were treated like maids and sometimes a receptionist, a secretary, but most of the times running up and down the cubicle making sure the patients are alright..

Despite all that as we chose to become nurses,, we are human too..

never fail to make our lives interesting either by treating ourselves to good food, jokes, juicy gossips.. opps!  at the end of the day. Some party hard, karaoke.. bowling .. having good laughs at Minds' cafe...  

Putting our differences aside...   But, no matter what..  we are united, and we feel for one another whenever anyone of us are feeling down or faced with problems. We even cry together  when one is experiencing bad relationship. We cheer up those who are feeling down. Comfort those who in need for love.  We have feelings, afterall we are nurses..  we have sense of empathy..

But unfortunately, the HR and Payroll dept do not have such sense. 

I was informed that my last salary will be withheld and will be paid only in maybe next 14 days!  Woah.. that's too long a time to wait.  

I do not have that long time to wait so I have it checked with MOM under the Employments'  Act.  Which according to the Act, it says :-

If the employee terminates the contract by resigning and has served the required notice period, the employer must pay the employee all due salary on the last day of the employment.

If the employee terminates the contract by leaving employment without notice or without serving the required notice period, salary should be paid to the employee within seven days from the last day of the employment.

I have served my notice period of 1 mth, and even settled the liquidated damages of $8384.80 as per request and now, my pay was held up. Why?
