Hi, I got terminated due to not disclosing one of my previous employments. I worked in the same company for 5 years, and when I switched projects in the same company, the old manager disclosed a "discrepancy in my previous employment which breaches company policy" to a new manager.
When I resigned, I got a termination letter.

I didn't disclose one of my previous companies because I had no proper supporting documents to justify my previous employment, because that company was one of my friend's startup companies where I worked for a few years but didn't have legitimate cash transactions to prove the salary received even though the company exists.

Dear member,

You have given information about your termination, however, we do not know whether you have provided complete information. Prima facie appears to be a case of distrust or a frosty relationship between you and your old manager. Despite working for five years, why you could not earn the goodwill of that manager is not understood.

Had there been amicable relations, the manager could have condoned the suppression of information about your job. I don't think the suppression would have created any harm to the organisation. However, your manager considered it appropriate to put the lid off. Yes, his actions speak of his truthfulness or loyalty towards the organisation, But he treated the situation as if the sky were to fall if the withheld information were not brought to light. His actions show there is something more than meets the eye.

Otherwise, did your position become redundant? Is it that the organisation wanted to remove you and this suppression of information served as an opportunity to terminate you? If this is true then the authorities have used your manager's shoulder to take a shot at you.

Termination or retention of the employee depends on the criticality of the role played by the position or the person. If your role were to be critical, the organisation would have surely tweaked the rules to retain you. Unfortunately, this did not happen!

Thanks,

Hi Dinesh,

In my case will I get new job? and even I get selected for next organization, do I need to mentioned the reason? because in my experience letter no reason is mentioned.

When I asked current manager about my termination, he said it's breach of policy but didn't mention in experience/relieving letter.

What will be the consequences in my future career after getting terminated? If I appeal in court do I have any chance for reversal of termination? anyhow i will not work in that company in future.

Dear member,

Your abrupt discontinuation of service by the previous employer and your future employment are independent of each other. In a free and democratic country, every citizen has a right to gainful employment. Therefore, go ahead and start the job search.

Your employer has not mentioned the reasons for your removal in the experience letter. It means that it is a neutral letter. An unblemished or untainted experience letter should not impede your job search.

After getting the job, even in the background verification also I don't think your past employer will give negative remarks. As I surmised in my previous post, your removal is more attributable to role redundancy instead of misconduct of suppression of information of the past job. Therefore, do not worry about that count also.

I wish you all the best!
