Labour law CONSOLIDATED REV NO 24119 AND 24269 OF 2024 ST

CONSOLIDATED REV NO 24119 AND 24269 OF 2024 ST

The Respondent was constructively terminated due to the Applicant's unilateral 25% salary reduction without consent and failure to pay the 20% acting allowance, both of which constituted fundamental breaches of the employment contract. The Respondent did not accept the altered terms, and the intolerable conditions left resignation as the only reasonable option. The acting allowance is a separate entitlement and not to be offset by other allowances.
