Can employees with pending cases resign?

Описание: When a person does something wrong, it’s only fair that we hold them accountable for what they did, right? But what if the person wants to wash themselves of responsibility or wants to escape the consequences of what they did?

This happens in work situations when a person is under investigation for a work violation, and suddenly, they say, “Sir, resign na lang po ako ako.” What then happens, what effect will it have on the pending case?

This is exactly what Angela N. is wondering about when she submitted this question on our website and she says:

“Attorney, how do we manage employees with pending admin cases who would like to resign while their case is still ongoing. Should the leaders/HR consider/accept the resignation? How would the HR/Leaders handle this?”

If you would like to know the answer as well, stick around as we talk about your options.
