Termination of an employment contract at the initiative of the employee - Labor Code of the Russian Federation

The Labor Code spells out in detail the main points for terminating this type of contract. An employee who wishes to resign submits a statement. In this document he indicates the date of dismissal. The application must be submitted to management no later than two weeks before this date.

Two weeks is a warning period. Upon completion, a person has the right not to start work. It is possible to formalize dismissal before the end of the specified period. For this purpose, the written consent of both parties is sufficient.

In certain cases, a citizen is required to be fired on the day he wrote in the application. The Code includes among them, for example, the applicant’s admission to an educational institution. These types of contracts can be terminated early. The notice period here is also 2 weeks. Those citizens who work in temporary jobs (for example, seasonal) about their desire to quit must notify the landlord 3 days in advance.

If the employer has not fulfilled its obligations, fired the employee without severance pay, or violated his rights in any other way, the employee may go to court. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to the keeping of the minutes of the court hearing and, if inconsistencies are found in it, immediately send appropriate comments to the judge.

The procedure for terminating an employment contract at the initiative of an employee

The dismissal procedure is as follows:

  • The citizen submits an application;
  • The application is registered;
  • After its consideration, the personnel employee prepares an order to terminate the work contract, at the initiative of the employee at his own request. The main thing here is to correctly write down the wording in the order with reference to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and correctly indicate the date;
  • After the manager signs the order, the dismissed person must read the order and put his signature in the journal;
  • The accounting department prepares a note-calculation;
  • According to the dismissal procedure, a work book is drawn up. The wording in it must exactly correspond to the definitions of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

On the applicant’s last day of work, the employer issues to the employee:

  • his accrued salary;
  • compensation due;
  • a certificate in the established form about income for the previous 2 years;
  • work book.

Grounds for termination of a work contract at the initiative of an employee

The grounds for terminating a working relationship with an employer can be very different. Many of them are enshrined in law.

The following reasons can be distinguished:

  • the pensioner’s desire to go on vacation;
  • the need to pay more attention to studies at an educational institution;
  • employer ignoring the law;
  • changing of the living place;
  • deterioration of health that does not allow work (disability);
  • change of place of work;
  • the arrival of another owner of the company;
  • deterioration of working conditions;
  • the need to move to another location with the company.

Severance pay to employees upon termination of an employment contract at the initiative of the employee

In a situation where a citizen decides to resign on his own initiative, he should not hope for compensation. It is paid if indicated in the company’s documents or established directly for the employee. The amount of such compensation is determined, as a rule, by the employer, and it is not discussed with the employee.

Circumstances arise when management decides to change working conditions. If an employee did not want to work according to the new rules, but decided to quit, then he may be paid a benefit in the amount of two weeks’ average earnings.

Basic guarantees provided to employees upon termination of an employment contract at the initiative of the employer

The main guarantees for the termination of the contractual relationship between an employee and the employer, at the initiative of the latter, are established either during the liquidation of the company or during the reduction of staff. A procedure has been determined in which a company must, in the event of a layoff, notify a person 2 months in advance and offer him a free job in the company, taking into account his training.

If a citizen refuses, management has the right to dismiss him by making appropriate compensation payments. The amount of severance pay is the amount of average monthly earnings. The same amount of payment is retained by the person for the duration of his job search, but not more than 2 months. If an employee decides to quit earlier than 2 months, the company is obliged to pay him another benefit. Few people know about this.

If the payment of severance pay upon termination of an employment contract by agreement of the parties is not provided for either in the employment or collective agreement, how to legally arrange the payment of this compensation?

Thank you. The information turned out to be useful.

What should an employee do if he changes his mind about quitting?

Life often makes its own adjustments to people’s plans and it happens that an employee changes his mind about quitting .

If two weeks have not yet elapsed from the date of submission of the application, the employee has the right to withdraw his application.

changed his mind about quitting

In this case, the manager must meet the employee halfway and has no right to interfere with him. An employee will not be able to remain at work if the employer finds a replacement for him within two weeks . Only here there is a condition - an employment contract must be concluded with the new employee.

In addition, certain citizens are allowed to change their mind about quitting after two weeks. This applies, for example, to officers of the armed forces. If an officer has submitted a letter of resignation and retires, then he has the opportunity to regain his position within three months.

In what cases can an employee choose the date of termination of the contract?

You can read about how to choose the right dismissal date in our article.

The law provides for situations in which a worker can choose the date when he will stop serving in the organization. The employee’s right to choose the date of dismissal is related to the reasons for termination of the employment contract at the initiative of the employee.

Such situations include:

  • dismissal caused by the employee’s enrollment in an educational institution;
  • termination of an employment contract, the reason for which was the employee’s retirement;
  • dismissal caused by violations of labor legislation by the organization's management, which were established as a result of an inspection by the labor inspectorate.

If one of these situations occurs, the employee indicates any date in his resignation letter and is not required to wait for a certain period to resign.

Important! Another opportunity not to wait until the “working out” period ends is to enter into an agreement with management in accordance with Part 2 of Art. 80 Labor Code of the Russian Federation. In this case, the two parties to the labor relationship have the right to agree on the date of dismissal of the worker or set any date.

Dismissal procedure upon termination of contract

If the initiator of termination of the contract is an employee, he draws up a statement addressed to the director with a request to dismiss him at his own request. It is issued two weeks (14 calendar days) before departure. According to the Labor Code, a person is obliged to work this time so that the HR department can find a replacement for him. The exception is for employees belonging to preferential categories, for example, pensioners. They can quit at any time.

The document is submitted to the director for review and signing, then the employee is sent a notice of termination of the contract. When familiarizing yourself with it, a person signs for receipt, which is recorded in the journal. If the parties have agreed among themselves, then notification is not required.

After the expiration of the work period (14 calendar days), the HR department issues an order to terminate the contract. On the last day of work, the resigning person is given a work book with a record of dismissal and a link to the article of the Labor Code, according to which the relationship is terminated and the final payment is made.
