Selangor agency’s dismissal of staff for info leak to Chegubard upheld
The Industrial Court found that drafts of two statements on alleged corruption, released by Chegubard, had originated from files in Khairi Salleh’s possession.
The Industrial Court in Kuala Lumpur has upheld the sacking of Khairi Salleh by Yayasan Selangor in May 2023. Yayasan Selangor found Khairi guilty of leaking confidential company information to Chegubard, a former Bersatu leader and activist. The court upheld the decision after a disciplinary inquiry found Khairi guilty of two charges - disseminating confidential information and using a name card that misrepresented his position for personal benefit.
Court chairman Ahmad Razif Sidek stated that evidence from the company completely contradicted Khairi's pleadings and witness statement. The court concluded that the company was justified in dismissing Khairi due to the serious nature of his misconduct, which destroyed the trust necessary for continued employment.
