How to deal this kind of employer ?
Hi all,
I need advice from you guys to get me out of a embarrasing situation.
I am working in a small company now...I dont like enjoy working here. Its not a problem of the work..its the management of the company upon whom I cant rely on...due to inconsistent behaviour. So I started to look for a new job.
I got a good offer from another company. They wanted me to start there from September 1.
According to the contract with my current employer , the notice period is 4 weeks till the end of quarter.
I gave a proposal to my current employer that, I would drop the claim of my holidays..(of around 5 weeks) and complete the projects (containing 3 person )I have in hand and he will release me from my duty by the end of August. This was discussed in last week of July. He agreed to it (verbally) and based on that I signed the contract with my new employer.
In the last week of last month I submitted my formal resignation letter to my current employer and he was trying to avoid discussion about this. In the mean time he issued holiday to the other 2 member of the projects. And he gave me back my resignation letter signing it with a constraint...I can leave if I can finish the project...in time. But its impossible cause the other two members are in holidays and I was not informed about it till the day before they left for holidays.
I have booked the umzug service and rented a new apartment for my family.
I want him to remove the constraint from the resignation letter. But he is not agreeing.
How this can be solved ? I told him that if he wants me to stay in September then he has to pay the salary of September as well as he has to pay my holidays. But he is avoiding the discussion..telling..lets talk about it tomorrow..and tomorrow..I am busy now..lets talk about it in the evening..etc.
What can I do ? What can be the legal consequences ?

In my case the notice period is 1 month till the end of quarter. In my case, legally, I cant leave before end of September. And if the company wants, it can pay for my holidays and keep me till september. But I have already signed a new contract starting from September 1. I could make it start from October 1, but i dont wanna stay in this company one long month more.

Re: How to deal this kind of employer ?
I have the same situation i am leaving the company as well. My chef's attitude is something like you said. But i found a new job i would also put my company into a list of black list companies.
The company gives you a referance letter but you can not give referance letters to the companies which new employers can look. that is stupid. In germany if you say something bad about a german employer in the interview they donot like it even the employer is a murder or something I donot understand this.
Anyway i think you should go to a lawyer and do everything by adresing the laws.
