The court held that because the contract did not require the employee to accept transfer and the respondent clearly refused the transfer, the refusal amounted to termination attributable to the employee under s12(3)(e) Employment Act 1955; accordingly the respondent was entitled to termination benefits under the 1980 Regulations and the Assistant Director of Labour's decision awarding RM23,237.26 was correct.
