Management Pressure vs. Proven Grounds: Can Termination Decisions Be Overturned?

An employee has been issued with termination orders after following due process - oral and written warnings with documented evidence.

However, can pressure from any member of the management be a sufficient cause for revoking the decision?

Management can revoke the decision to punish an employee. However, they will always consider the precedence impact of such moves.

Dear colleague,

To revisit the decision of the termination is left to the discretion of the management provided there exist valid grounds or there is a gross error apparent on the face of the records. The pressure from some senior management person does not appear to form valid ground for the review.

The decision of termination is at the discretion of the management and they can also withdraw the decision based on conditions.

I agree with Mr. Nagarkar's view that pressure from a senior management person does not seem to be a valid reason. You should be least bothered; the management will remain responsible for future events.
