When an employer and employee enter into an employment contract, both


parties need to understand the reciprocal obligation and rights of each
party. It is always best to examine the procedure to be followed in
dismissing or terminating an employee on the ground of a fundamental
breach of contract.

A contract of employment set out the terms and conditions, including the
respective rights and responsibilities of the employer and the employee. A
fundamental breach of contract occurs when either party breaks one of
those terms, either express or implied, which legal remedy can potentially
be sought.

What to do in case of breach of employment contract?


An employee who is allegedly committed a fundamental breach of contract
has a right to seek proper investigation before declaring it. The employer
has the duty to investigate before ending the employee’s contract and
follow a fair disciplinary procedure.
An employee wrongly accused of breach of contract could possibly lead the
employer in breach of the contract as well, for breach of the implied duty of
mutual trust and confidence. In these circumstances, the employee could
feel forced to resign and claim constructive dismissal.

Constructive dismissal occurs in any of the following instances:

1. There is a significant change in employment’s term or condition of


work and as a result, continued employment is rendered impossible
and unreasonable.

2. There is a demotion in rank or diminution in pay

3. There is clear discrimination, insensibility, or disdain by an employer


that becomes unbearable to the employee leaving the employee with
no other option but to quit.

Having said that, it is best for both the employer and employee to seek the
expertise of an Employment Lawyer to discuss this matter.
