Previously, we wrote that Tengyue Architecture, a subsidiary of Country Garden, and its design institute have undergone large-scale personnel reductions. Among those who were forced to leave their jobs was even one who held the position of director of the legal department. Despite the employee's high position, he was also unable to recover his long-overdue wages, let alone receive severance payments.
Recently, a legal incumbent who was fired by Leap Construction filed a lawsuit in court for the company's irregularities, and faced a dilemma. Affected by the deterioration of the market environment and trust issues, Leap Construction, a subsidiary of Country Garden, recently replaced all its legal team, especially in Shandong. In this conflict of interests, the rights and interests of all parties have been seriously harmed, and some employees have not even received the necessary compensation. After the labor arbitration, the company still refused to honor its promises, resulting in the employees having to continue the legal process.
Originally, the incumbent did not intend to pursue too much and only hoped to recover the part of the unpaid wages, but when he was fired, the attitude of the corporate leaders was friendly. He offered to settle his unpaid wages without any additional compensation. At that time, the company also agreed to try to solve the problem by reducing the amount of compensation. However, after the handover was completed, the business leaders changed their minds again. For this reason, the person in charge of legal affairs had no choice but to seek arbitration help. After the verdict was announced, the company still refused to honor the ruling, forcing the employee to go to court.
It can be seen that Country Garden's handling of this incident is obviously beyond the reasonable range. It is understood that most of the employees of Tengyue Construction were forced to leave their jobs, and almost all of the personnel involved should receive severance compensation. In light of this, there is every opportunity for businesses to get out of trouble by satisfying the legitimate requests of their employees, rather than opting for endless internal attrition. We understand that the employee has received arrears of wages several times, and the company still owes him 8,776 yuan in wages and more than 2,000 yuan in annual leave wages. Labor arbitration has clearly supported these two disputes, but Tengyue Construction has not cared, and it is really puzzling that it has to delay until the last minute with a good deck of cards.
After the arbitration award was published, the employee found that the award only sanctioned a portion of the unpaid wages and therefore did not appeal. However, when the new in-house counsel took over, the company's efficiency plummeted, and the number of lawsuits surged, and they decided to take the matter to the end. Although the demands of enterprises in labor disputes are not unfounded, it is too cold-blooded and ruthless to treat old employees who have worked for enterprises in this way.
This incident has aroused widespread attention and discussion in Shandong, and many people have accused Tengyue Construction of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, which is chilling. This in-house counsel, who has been deeply involved in major cases in the company, has made countless efforts to help the company save a lot of expenses, but in the end it has ended up with such a sad ending, which can't help but make people feel sad. According to **, with the development of the situation in the future, Country Garden may choose to adopt a "lying flat" strategy in some subsidiaries that are in extreme distress. Companies are now taking a new path of transformation and are no longer focusing on loss-making businesses.
