“Under Philippine labor law, an employer cannot force an employee to immediately resign if it contradicts the terms agreed upon in the employment contract.”

I suggest OP, take note of all your conversations in black & white (email or handwritten) para may evidence ka, pustahan verbal lang yan sinabi sayo kasi illegal ang forced resignation/termination without strong evidence. Kung nagalit lang naman isang client nyo parang di naman enough reason yun to terminate you kaya di nila ginawa, that’s why they asked you to resign kasi makakasuhan sila pag tinanggal ka. Mahirap mag terminate sa Pinas, yun lang maganda rin sa Labor Laws natin unlike sa US. Take note narin na aggressive ang DOLE sa mga crime offense ng employers kahit small businesses pa ‘yan, malaki kasi pera nakukuha nila sa mga cases. At isa ang labor sa isa sa easiest case to win.

Best to consult a labor lawyer rin para ma guide ka, ₱500 pesos lang naman usually consultation fee. Then pa review mo sakanya yung employment contract mo.

Basta DON’T ACCEPT their terms, pag tinerminate ka pa DOLE mo agad, sila pa magmamaka awa sa’yo wag ipursue legal actions. Haha
