FAQ
If you truly quit your job, you could be ineligible for unemployment. Most states include an explicit exception for employees who are offered the opportunity to quit rather than being fired (called quitting "in lieu of termination"). In this situation, you don't have any choice in the matter.
Allowing an employee designated for termination to resign voluntarily can be preferable in certain situations. “Resignation in lieu of termination” can offer a more dignified exit for the employee and potentially reduce legal risks for the employer.
Resignation is not subject for approval, it's just a mere notice so that your employer will have time to search for your replacement. Last day shall be counted from the moment you submitted your resignation whether there is an acknowledgement or not.
As a general rule, it is seen more favorably (by potential future employers) to resign rather than be fired.
One choice involves submitting a request for resignation from military service in lieu of elimination. Officers electing this option will normally condition their resignation on a characterization of military service more favorable than Other Than Honorable.
Sure. An employer can ask an employee to resign instead of firing them but the employee may not be entitled to unemployment benefits if they quit. The employer may not want the employee to receive benefits. The employee may not qualify for benefit...
It is a common misconception that an employee's notice of resignation is not valid unless it has been "accepted" by the employer. The position at common law is that a notice, once validly given, is effective and can neither be "refused" by the employer or "withdrawn" by the employee, without the other's agreement.
If the termination is not due to gross misconduct or a major policy violation, offering the option to resign can be a respectful alternative. This approach is suitable for cases involving failure to meet performance or productivity standards.
Example: Thank you for submitting your resignation letter on June 23rd 2022. In the meantime, I have carefully read and understood it. I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge that I have both received and accepted your resignation. I wish you all the best in your future endeavours.
