Description
Summary:An employee has the right to unilaterally declare his will, in writing, terminate an employment contract for an indefinite period, respecting the cancellation deadline. A fixedterm employment contract may be canceled if such a clause is foreseen in the contract itself. The statement of the employee does not have to contain the reason (motive) of the cancellation but must be clear, categorical, unequivocal and without any faults of will. Blank statement of the employee on the termination of employment, given at the establishment of employment, does not produce a legal effect. A number of concerns can arise in the application of the regulations. The author presents the institute of termination of employment at the initiative of the employee in the general regime of labor relations, analyzes the court practice and the application of regulations, identifies possible disputable situations and provides guidelines for the solution.
