Duties and Rights (Part I )

Be a professional means you have to sacrifice some of your life. Every decision made will be affected to your performance, no matter what the reason is, you must follow rules and regulations. There is no human sense at all in this office. The environment becomes worse than ever, I thought that as a father, he will admit me to take some more times after my maternity leave, but I was wrong. In fact I have to change my original request which I was going to take 2 months leave without pay but I have to change my mind at this time that I will not take leave without pay. It means I will take risks for my kids and myself. For sure, I need more time at home as my baby is still very young and it is almost impossible for me to be away from her for many hours.

It is not reasonable that during maternity leave in this office, there will be deducted 2/3 from monthly wages. This act is absolutely against the gender equity and against the labour code. Gender equity is high considered in this country and in the world. It is unacceptable that the fundamental right of a woman must be ignored by deducting her wages because of staying at home during maternity leave. Is it because of the elder average is higher than younger at the country origin of this organization? Or because of business orientation and individual life style has affected to the limited reproductive women in that country? Therefore, there is no human sense at all for pregnancy women. So terrible!!!

Every employee has fundamental rights for marriage, maternity leave, paternity leave, leave without pay, health insurance, sick leave, life insurance and travel insurance. It is understandable that each organization has different policies but at least the basic policies from International Labour Organization are applicable in every organization.
 

If the staff is ten minutes late, it will be accumulated with other day when the staff is late and the wages will be deducted for that absence. However if the staff stays after working hours less than 25 minutes, overtime for this extra hours is not considered.

Local staff is not entitled for health insurance and if sick leave runs out from 6 days it will be paid by deducting salary. In contrary, they are entitled for health insurance, life insurance and free for consultation & treatment wherever they wish.

I do appreciate to this organization because the big boss has revised the contract to start fully paid to the women while taking maternity leave. TU
