This 24-year-old, who wants to be known only as Jayern, claims he has been slapped, kicked, punched, hit with PVC pipes and even a golf club by his boss.
He has made police reports and filed a magistrate's complaint.
Jayern also has a medical report which details injuries he claims he sustained after the most recent beating.
The accounts executive at an events company has been billed for everything from dead fengshui plants to broken car keys.
And when he quit, his boss sent him a lawyer's letter - for breaking his contract.
Incredible?
His colleagues apparently knew about it and some have even heard his muffled cries and the whacks he received behind closed doors.
One colleague said Jayern was treated worse than an animal.
And yet he stayed with the company because he is an only son and his parents are retirees who live in a two-room flat.
Jayern is soft-spoken but not small. He is 1.78m tall and weighs 76kg but he says his boss has a martial arts black belt.
So Jayern was no match.
When the The New Paper on Sunday met him, there were cuts and long, dark bruises on his arms and forehead.
It was a former colleague who had tipped us off about Jayern's suffering.
The colleague was angry and didn't know who else to turn to except to inform the press.
Having been allegedly assaulted in at least five incidents between July 10 and Aug 27, Jayern has finally called it quits.
He has lodged two police reports and filed a magistrate's complaint after leaving the company.
But why the long wait to make a police report? Why didn't he quit after the first instance of abuse?
For him, it's about job security, says the diploma holder, who was at first shy to tell us his story.
From the start, he didn't want to disappoint his parents.
Jayern, the only child in his family, says: "It was my first real job and I'm the sole breadwinner of the family.
"I thought if I endured (the punishment), it would soon go away. I didn't expect to be treated like my boss's punching bag."
But things didn't get any better, says Jayern, who joined the company in June 2010.
It had been a good start. He even got promoted six months later.
But he later realised that every time he made a mistake, he would have to "pay".
On July 10, Jayern's boss, the managing director of the company, allegedly kicked his stomach a few times in a cargo lift at the office.
Jayern had caused the director, who is in his mid-40s, to be late for a meeting when he had forgotten to remind him.
In July and August, there were other alleged assaults, according to Jayern's magistrate's complaint.
The director had allegedly used a 1m-long PVC pipe to hit Jayern's buttocks in the meeting room or his office whenever Jayern made mistakes at work.
The sessions occurred during office hours, when colleagues heard strange noises from the meeting room.
Whenever the PVC pipe broke, Jayern would be ordered to get another from the company workshop.
The pipe had to be cut to "the exact length" his boss wanted, Jayern says.
The scariest beating was an hour-long thrashing on Aug 12.
It started when a roadshow coordinated by Jayern did not start on time.
The director was waiting for him in the meeting room when he returned to the office at 5pm. Jayern's supervisor was also present.
The boss wanted him to explain why things didn't go according to plan at the roadshow.
"I knew he wasn't convinced with my explanation when he (the director) told me to dim the lights in the meeting room and take off my watch," says Jayern.
The frustrated boss told Jayern to get the PVC pipe.
Then he allegedly began hitting him with the pipe, focusing his attack later on Jayern's head, forehead and left hand.
More than a month later when TNPS met Jayern, he pointed to visible bruises as proof of the beating.
The boss had allegedly kicked him several times on the stomach, says Jayern, who shielded his body from the blows after he fell to the ground.
He says: "He told me not to block. He said the more I moved away, the harder he would strike me.
"I pleaded with him and said hitting me would not solve anything.
"All this while, my supervisor just watched and did nothing."
Jayern shouted that he promised not to make another mistake.
Any thoughts of overpowering the angry man was out of the question.
"He has a black belt in karate," says Jayern. "There's no way I could overpower him."
He prayed that the beating would stop soon.
The director had allegedly threatened him by saying: "I will not release you from the office until you get into a hospital."
But he stopped beating him eventually.
Jayern was told to wash up and return to work for another roadshow at 7pm.
Soon, Jayern began making excuses to colleagues and his parents whenever new bruises appeared on his body.
He would say it had been a warehouse accident or that he had been knocked off his bicycle.
In his father's presence, he was always careful not to expose the bruised parts of his hands.
It worked - for a short while.
People started to wonder as his injuries seemed to happen too frequently.
The final straw came on Aug 27, when Jayern claims he was almost knocked unconscious with a wooden souvenir golf club.
He was punished for failing to buy three mobile phones, he claims.
At his father's insistence, Jayern made a police report and later went to a hospital for a medical check-up.
The police say investigations are ongoing.
His father said that it was on that night that he finally learnt about the alleged abuse.
The doctor found that Jayern had suffered an abrasion to the neck, a swollen wrist and upper abdominal tenderness.
Jayern says: "It didn't feel like work any more.
"Instead every time I saw my angry boss, it felt like interrogation and torture."
