Employee's intent to take new job does not constitute implied resignation from existing employment contract.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal filed by an employee against a regional court's finding of implied contract termination. The employee had declared an intent to work at a new school while still employed, which the opposing party argued constituted a sufficient manifestation of will to resign. The court held that such a declaration lacked the necessary clarity regarding the specific date and method of termination, as the new job did not exist at the time of the declaration. Consequently, the court ruled that the employee's actions did not legally demonstrate a clear intent to end the existing employment relationship without notice.
