1. I have signed an offer. However, before I join the new company, Company B. I got a foot injury accident and have a few months hospitalisation.
2. The new company postpones the on boarding date since I am in the phase of foot recovery stage. No new contract has been issued.
3. The employment contract is suppose to start at May. And I want to decline to join the Company B in July. But Company B wants me to compensate them one month salary.
I am wondering why I still need to pay since the clause is stated termination before the commencement date, and obviously the commencement date has been dued.
