Termination by Employee and Mutual Termination of Employment Contract

Terminations are often a difficult and uncomfortable topic for both employers and employees. Understanding the different ways to terminate an employment relationship can help ease this process.

In this blog, we will consider two main ways to terminate an employment relationship: mutual termination of the employment contract and termination by the employee.

MUTUAL TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT

Mutual termination of the employment relationship involves an agreement between the employee and the employer to end the employment relationship. This decision is mutual, making it potentially less stressful for both parties.

KEY POINTS OF MUTUAL TERMINATION:

• Written Agreement: The termination of the contract must be made in written form and must include the date of termination of the employment relationship.
• Notarization: This termination must be notarized with the personal presence of both the employer and the employee.

TERMINATION BY THE EMPLOYEE

Termination by the employee means that the employee wishes to terminate the employment contract.

KEY POINTS OF TERMINATION BY THE EMPLOYEE:

• Statement of Termination: The employee must notarize the statement of termination of the employment.
• Date of Termination: The statement must specify the date of termination of the employment relationship.
• Obligation to Respect the Notice Period: The notice period is 30 days. In case of non-compliance with the notice period, the employer has the right to compensation for damages from the employee.
  

Whether it is a mutual termination or termination by the employee, compliance with legal procedures is crucial.
