employment breach-of-contract malaysia
What to do if a Company terminates your contract before 1 week of joining date?
<p>Working in Malaysia I got a job offer from one of the famous MNCs 1 month ago under another Company's payroll. I got the offer letter and all the documentation is complete. I resigned from my current Company and my EP is canceled too. The documents for new EP has already been submitted by the new Company.</p>

<p>1 week before the joining date, I was informed that the project is canceled. Now I am stranded. Can I sue the Company?</p>

<p>If you had a contract guaranteeing employment for six months and it was cancelled without cause, you could sue the new employer for breach of contract for six months of wages and relocation/loss of benefit damages, less any mitigation of damages you could accomplish by finding alternative employment.</p>
