Can you quit without a job? How to properly and legally quit your job of your own free will

The reasons for the termination of cooperation may be different: a transition to a more paid organization or unwillingness to work on the proposed terms. Many are interested: is it possible to quit "without working for two weeks"? The answer to this question depends on the situation.

Legal side

The wording "working off two weeks" is incorrect. According to Art. 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to notify the director of the termination of cooperation. We are talking about the warning period, not additional responsibilities. Since the name is common, we will continue to conditionally call this period “working off”.

According to the general rules, dismissal “without working off two weeks” is impossible: first, a written application is provided indicating the grounds and a reference to the NPA, then the management has 14 days to complete the calculations and search for a candidate (calculation starts from next day). But in practice, this formality can be bypassed.

How to leave "without working out 2 weeks": possible options

If an employee intends to leave the organization as soon as possible he must comply with the manual. There are several ways to safely solve the problem:

  1. Arrange with the director of the enterprise.
  2. Inform in the application the reason for the dismissal "without working off", provided for by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.
  3. Arrange a vacation with the termination of cooperation in the future.
  4. Have documentary evidence of violation of rights by management.
  5. Apply for sick leave with further dismissal (supporting documents will be required).

Is it possible to dismiss "without working off" by mutual agreement?

This method is considered the simplest and most convenient for all interested parties. When good relations with management are established or there is no need for a delay, by mutual agreement it is possible to dismiss "without working out" even on the day of application.

Remember: if the employer agreed to prematurely part with the employee, the grounds for dismissal remain. That is, the wording "at the initiative of the employee" does not turn into "by agreement of the parties."

For what reasons can you quit "without working out"

Individuals who signed a contract for two months or passing probation, has the right to inform his superiors of his intentions three days in advance. The Labor Code of the Russian Federation regulates good reasons for which an immediate termination of cooperation is possible. They are undeniable, the opinion of management is not taken into account. Under what conditions can you quit "without working two weeks":

  1. Enrollment in an institute, college or university for a full-time department.
  2. An employee-student switches to full-time education (from evening or correspondence).
  3. The spouse or spouse of the employee formalizes employment outside the Russian Federation (on transfer from the organization).

Who else has the right to quit "without working off two weeks"

An individual can leave workplace without observing the notice period in three cases:

  • brings up a child with disabilities;
  • is an army conscript;
  • plans to move to another area.

Dismissal "without working off" by agreement of the parties

The initiator can be a boss or an employee. It is worth noting that the grounds for dismissal are not related to the agreement on the immediate termination of cooperation under paragraph 3 of Art. 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

There is no information in the legislation on whether it is possible to quit “without working off 2 weeks” by agreement of the parties. Since termination is possible at any time (Article 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation), with the consent of the employer and employee, it is possible to terminate the relationship on the day the application is submitted. No separate written document is required.

Can a pensioner quit "without working off"

Some people continue to work after retirement. They are subject to requirements similar to ordinary employees (working conditions, payment procedure, etc.). But there are still some privileges:

  1. According to the second part of Art. 80 of the Labor Code, the dismissal of a pensioner "without working off" is allowed.
  2. Such citizens are considered valuable personnel due to their rich experience and knowledge, therefore, in the event of a reduction, they are more likely to stay.

In practice, the dismissal of a pensioner own will"without working out" usually occurs on the date indicated in the application. Labor Code does not set limits on the time interval, but the director of the company cannot detain such employees (many court decisions confirm this).

How to quit a pensioner "without working off"

The government often considers raising the retirement age as many continue to work. The enterprise is also not interested in the loss of able-bodied people with valuable experience and knowledge. Dismissal of a pensioner at his own request “without working off” is possible subject to two conditions:

  • well-written application;
  • availability of supporting documents.

Formality is applicable to situations where a person has worked at an enterprise certain time and reached retirement age. But the question arises, what to do if labor activity continued after going on a well-deserved rest? How to quit a working pensioner "without working off"?

Legislation does not provide specific answers, so in practice there are controversial situations. Bailiffs often defend the position of employees. In order to avoid conflicts, we recommend that the management satisfy the request and formalize the dismissal of the pensioner “without working off”.

Attention

When a pensioner got a job in your organization and, after working for a certain time, applied for dismissal of his own free will, the procedure for terminating cooperation does not differ from the usual one. Premature care is not possible.

How to quit of your own free will

For example, a conflict arose between the parties. The employee filed an application for termination of employment on the basis of paragraph 3 of Art. 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and left the enterprise. In this case, the director has the right to issue a dismissal for absenteeism. The employee must know that the neglect of deadlines is possible only if the rules of dismissal of one's own free will "without working off" are observed.

A two-week period is given not only for the director, but also for the worker, in order to think over the decision well. At any time, you can withdraw the application and continue activities under the same conditions. But if you want to immediately leave the organization, the employee must:

  1. Indicate in the application of your own free will a request to dismiss “without working off”.
  2. Explain why there is no opportunity to work out the allotted time.

It's important to know

If during the warning period the management hired a new candidate and signed an employment contract, the dismissed person cannot return.

How to write a letter of resignation "without working two weeks"

Any employee of the enterprise has the right to draw up the document in question. For this, a standard A4 sheet is suitable. If the design is done manually, the main requirement for handwriting is legibility and accuracy. Corrections are not allowed. A sample letter of resignation "without working off" in printed form is shown in the figure:

Structure:

  • header - details of the enterprise and personal data of interested parties are noted;
  • center of the page - "Statement" is written;
  • the main part is a request and a link to the NLA;
  • conclusion - date of compilation and signature.

The employee is recommended to note the reasons for dismissal of his own free will "without working off", which are given in Art. 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. They give the right to immediately leave the workplace (discussed in subheadings 4 and 5 of our consultation). At the same time, discrepancies in situations that are not regulated by the law will be prevented.

I wrote this material to acquaint you with how toquit voluntarilywithout any negative consequences, regardless of which category of employees you belong to: an ordinary employee or a manager of any link.

Russian legislation provides for a person's right to free labor. This means that everyone has the right to choose their own labor activity(or not choose any - the Soviet norms on liability for parasitism have long been canceled), conclude and terminate an employment contract (contract). And one of the main grounds for termination is dismissal of one's own free will.

This article is devoted to how to properly arrange such a dismissal, and what you should pay attention to in this case.

○ Voluntary dismissal.

✔ TC on dismissal at will.

Current Labor Code Russian Federation(hereinafter for simplicity - the Labor Code of the Russian Federation) provides in Art. 77 list of grounds on which an employee can be dismissed. This list is open, but those grounds that are not included in it relate to rather rare professions and positions (such as judges, employees of the Investigative Committee or the prosecutor's office, officials of the municipal or public service), and therefore the absolute majority of workers are satisfied with 11 points of this article.

Specifically, paragraph 3 of Art. 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which in turn gives a reference to Art. 80 of the same code. In essence, Art. 80 is all that an employee needs to know who wants to correctly and without unnecessary problems quit.

The dismissal procedure itself for workers who entered into an indefinite employment contract has not changed since 1992, when the Soviet Code of Labor Laws (Labor Code) of the RSFSR (later - the Russian Federation) of 1972 was still in force. However, the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which has been in force since 2002, has significantly eased the position of workers on a fixed-term contract: now they can quit on common grounds without proving to the employer that they have good reasons for dismissal.

✔ What is the reason to write in the application?

The legislation does not describe in detail what reasons an employee may have for dismissal of their own free will. This is his personal business, which does not concern anyone. Even if he wants to quit because he does not have time to pet his beloved cat before work, he has the right to write a letter of resignation.

The reasons why an employee quits matter only for the so-called " working off"- the period during which the employee who submitted the application is obliged to continue working. By general rule such period is set at least two weeks from the date of filing the application. However, if the dismissal is due to valid reasons, working off is not required. As good reasons The Labor Code of the Russian Federation specifies the following:

  • If the employee is unable to continue working (due to retirement, enrollment in an educational institution, etc.).
  • If the employer seriously violates labor laws or contracts and agreements with a specific employee or team.

However, this list is not exhaustive, and by mutual agreement, the employee and the employer can do without observing the notice period for dismissal.

Validity of reasons for dismissal of one's own free will was required, as already mentioned, until 2002 for workers on a fixed-term employment contract, and also until 2010 - to maintain continuous work experience. Currently, due to changes in pension legislation continuous experience practically lost its significance for the appointment of pensions. Where it is still taken into account for receiving departmental benefits, only the gap between dismissal and new employment matters, and not the reasons for which the dismissal occurred.

✔ List of necessary conditions for dismissal on your own.

Strictly speaking, only one condition is necessary - the desire of the worker himself. By notifying the employer in advance and having worked for the required two weeks (or more if the application was filed longer before the expected date of dismissal), the employee has full right stop any activity at the old enterprise and never show up there again.

None of the employer's requirements matter. If you are required to complete some work, pre-sign a bypass sheet, etc., and without this they threaten not to extradite work book- do not worry, but feel free to stop working. The law is on your side, and a recalcitrant employer can get into trouble by filing a complaint with the court or with a complaint to the prosecutor's office. Experience shows that this is more than enough.

✔ Step-by-step order / dismissal procedure.

So you've decided to quit. How should you act?

The first thing an employee needs to do is apply. The law does not establish any requirements for its form, but it will be easiest to use sample application which is easy to find on the Internet. The application is submitted to the employer, which is usually the head of the enterprise. Depending on the organization's internal regulations, an application can be submitted through the director's office, personnel department, etc. - the main thing is that in the end the application ends up with the head. If you work in a branch of the organization, then it is better to submit an application at the location of the head office.

Sometimes the dismissal is preceded by a conflict between the employee and the management of the enterprise. If you are afraid that the application will be lost or destroyed, in order to then fire you “under the article” (that is, for a gross violation of labor duties or discipline at the enterprise), then you need to insure yourself in advance. As a rule, it will be enough to write an application in two copies. Then one copy is transferred to the management of the enterprise, and on the second the personnel officer, secretary or other person who has the necessary authority in accordance with the internal rules of the organization puts a mark of acceptance: the date the application was received, the position indication, the signature with the transcript. A statement with such a mark will be reliable evidence in the event of a court case. If they refuse to put a mark, then the best way out is to send an application by registered mail with a notification and a description of the attachment. It's a long way (the letter will go at least three days), but absolutely reliable: the signature and date on the mail notification will clearly indicate that the letter was received on that day, and the inventory of the attachment marked by the post office in court will be proof that the letter of resignation was sent.

But the application has already been submitted. From that moment, in accordance with Art. 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the notice period for dismissal begins to run. As already mentioned, it should be at least two weeks. In the same case, if the employee wishes to quit without working off, the employer has the right to demand documents confirming the grounds for early dismissal. If there are no such documents, two weeks will have to be worked out.

During the working period, the employee must perform his duties in accordance with the employment contract. Submitting a voluntary resignation letter will not prevent your employer from firing you for absenteeism or other violations, if any. However, in the event that an employee falls ill, the notice period is not interrupted. In this case, the employer is obliged to issue a dismissal order, make a calculation and issue a work book, even if the employee is on sick leave. If the employee cannot appear for work in person, then it can be sent by mail with his consent, or it will be issued after recovery.

It must be remembered that if you were financially responsible person and personally responsible for the safety of any property of the employer, you should return this property upon dismissal by signing the relevant documents - otherwise the management of the enterprise may hold you accountable. However, signing or not signing a bypass sheet and other internal documentation is not related to dismissal and only means that, if necessary, you will have to do this without being an employee of the enterprise. The management will still be obliged to issue a work book and carry out a full calculation.

After the period of working out has expired, the employee is obliged to stop his labor activity. If he continues to perform his duties and does not insist on dismissal, then according to the law, the employment contract is considered to be ongoing, and the entire dismissal procedure must be started anew.

In addition, during the entire term of the notice of dismissal, the employee has the right to withdraw his application and continue working. The only exception will be the case when another employee has already been invited to his place in the transfer order (Article 64 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). However, in this case, the new employee must be invited from his organization in writing, and the resigning employee must be familiar with this invitation and the consent that his future successor gave for the transfer.

✔ What record will be put in the labor?

It should be remembered that the work book is a rather strict document, and the outcome of possible disputes over the length of service and type of work often depends on the correctness of the entries made in it. Therefore, upon dismissal for any reason, including at their own request, the employee must ensure that the personnel officers of the enterprise make an entry in strict accordance with the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. The current instruction for filling out work books provides that the entry is made with reference to Art. 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation - a general article providing for all grounds for dismissal, and not on Art. 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which refers specifically to the dismissal at the initiative of the employee.

Therefore, the entry in the work book for the resigning person must contain a reference to paragraph 3 of Art. 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and the words "dismissed of their own free will" or "dismissed at the initiative of the employee." We emphasize again: in the labor instructions, Art. 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation should not be! This is a very common mistake that is made in many HR departments, but due to its prevalence, it does not become acceptable.

In the event that, upon dismissal, you find that a mistake has nevertheless been made, you must demand that a new entry be made immediately: “The entry for the number ... (the number of the erroneous entry should be here) is invalid.” After that, personnel officers should already make the correct entry for the next serial number.

To finish the conversation about entries in the labor, let's pay attention to the fact that entries in the labor are made only in full words, without abbreviations. Therefore, it should not be written “p. 3 art. 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation”, and “paragraph 3 of Article 77 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation”.

So that the dismissal of one's own free will be as painless as possible for both parties and not negatively affect further career, there are a few simple rules:

  • It is necessary to quit with careful observance of the procedure provided for by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. It is also necessary to comply with the requirements stipulated by the internal documents of the organization - but only to the extent that does not contradict the law and only if you were familiarized with them against signature.
  • Wherever possible, conflicts should be avoided. former employer. Of course, you need to protect your rights - but the labor market is not that big, and your new leader can contact the former. It's best to leave yourself good impression, and if for this you need to meet the needs of the former bosses in some way, it’s better to do so.
  • Carefully consider the return of tools, equipment, documents that you used at your previous job. The best option here is to transfer the inventory to a new employee who has come to your place, but if there is none, then to a representative of the company's management. In the event of a conflict, this will allow you to avoid accusations of embezzlement.
  • During the period of working out, be as responsible as possible to your duties. There should not be any violations (lateness, absenteeism, etc.) - otherwise you can easily find a record of dismissal in the work book not at will, but at the initiative of the employer.
  • Voluntary dismissal must be voluntary. In practice, there is a situation when the employer requires that the objectionable employee himself write a letter of resignation - in this case, it is not necessary to look for another reason for dismissal and pay severance pay. But such claims are completely illegal. If an employee is threatened that otherwise he will be “dismissed under the article” (that is, for any violation of the law or employment contract) - the employer thereby admits that he himself is preparing to break the law. Illegal dismissal in this case, it will be possible to appeal in court, having achieved reinstatement at work. However, since it is extremely problematic to work with management in such a relationship, most employees seek through the court to change the wording for dismissal of their own free will and pay compensation for forced travel. In addition, the court may also recover compensation from the employer for non-pecuniary damage.

The procedure for dismissal from work has been worked out in the legislation to the smallest detail - in most cases, the employee needs to warn the manager by writing a letter of resignation and work for another 2 weeks. The question of how to quit without working off may be relevant for those employees who leave work of their own free will, but due to life circumstances are unable to work for another 2 weeks. For example, this may be due to life circumstances - health status or moving to another area.

Is it possible to quit without working for two weeks

Article 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation analyzes in detail the issues related to the dismissal at the initiative of the employee, and it is precisely here that the need to work out the required two weeks is legally determined. This period begins to count down on the day the director receives the letter of resignation, regardless of when he endorses it and the preparation of the corresponding order begins.

At the same time, for those who are looking for an answer to the question of whether it is necessary to work for 2 weeks upon dismissal, you need to know that this article of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation also states situations when an employment contract must be terminated within the period specified by the employee, or termination of employment by mutual agreement between the employee and the employer on working time.

Deadlines for dismissal in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation

If approached strictly formally, then Art. 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation does not require a 2-week working off, but states the need to warn the manager within this period (so that he can pick up a replacement, etc.). For example, if an employee writes a statement about the termination of employment before going on a 28-day vacation, then immediately after the end of the vacation, he will be dismissed of his own free will without working off. The term is also considered if the employee warns the director while on sick leave - upon presentation then to the personnel department of a disability sheet, the days of illness can be taken into account.

Three days

The legislation of our country provides for situations when you can write a letter of resignation without working off and stop working in an organization after 3 days. This applies when:

  • the employee has not yet completed the probationary period (Article 71 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation);
  • the term of the contract concluded with him is less than 2 months (Article 292 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation);
  • the employee was involved in the performance of seasonal work (Article 296 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

2 weeks

According to the Labor Code, a two-week period is the period in which you need to warn your boss that you want to change jobs. In this case, the employee needs to work out the required two weeks from the date of writing the application, and receive a calculation and work book from the personnel department in order to get a new job. In fact, the date of dismissal is determined by the management, having agreed with which, you can terminate the employment contract earlier. In this case, it is mandatory to have written proof of the agreement reached (for example, a visa on your application).

It is convenient that if the situation changes and the employee changes his mind about leaving, the application can be withdrawn. In the case when the employment relationship is terminated by agreement of the parties or upon dismissal after a vacation, this cannot be done. However, if another person was found in place of the leaving employee who draws up employment documents, then it will not be possible to withdraw the application.

1 month when working in a managerial position

Separately, the Labor Code of the Russian Federation provides for situations when it comes to the dismissal of an executive. Art. 280 states the need for a month's notice from the time the employer received the completed application. Similar requirements apply to coaches and athletes - upon dismissal, they are entitled to work for a month (unless the contract provides for another, usually longer period). In all cases under consideration, this is due to the specifics of labor, which does not allow you to immediately leave previous job.

What are the reasons for quitting without a job?

According to Art. 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, a mandatory attribute is not working out, but timely notification of the manager about the dismissal by signing an application, and there is no difference whether the employee will work this period or be on sick leave. Therefore, from a legal point of view, it would be more correct to talk not about how an employee quit without working off, but how to terminate an employment relationship with a minimum warning period or without it at all (for example, for pensioners). As a rule, this is due to the presence of good reasons, to which the legislation includes:

  • Admission to educational institution- A university or secondary school for full-time education, when the study schedule does not allow you to perform your job duties normally. In this case, supporting documents must be attached to the application.
  • Retirement for well-deserved rest for those employees who have reached the retirement age determined by Russian law. At the same time, if such an employee of retirement age gets a job again, he loses the right to dismissal without working off.
  • According to the decision of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation on March 7, 2004 No. 2, a good reason, problem solving how to quit without working off is also a new appointment of a spouse with a change of residence - moving to another city or country. In this case, a certificate of transfer of the spouse to another job is attached to the application.

Special circumstances provided by law

Labor legislation considers special situations when an employee can not work for 2 weeks upon dismissal. These are situations like:

  • Pregnancy and other family reasons (caring for a sick family member, a disabled child, the presence of three or more minor children) with appropriate documentary evidence.
  • Non-compliance/violation by the administration of the company of the norms of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation or local regulations. The situation with a delay in wages for more than 15 days is considered in Art. 142 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation - in this case, the employee has the right to suspend the performance of his duties. If at the same time he asks for dismissal, and the salary at the enterprise is not paid for another two weeks, then nothing needs to be worked out. The situation is similar in case of violation of the rules of payment for the period of sick leave, transfer of benefits to pregnant women, etc. Arbitrage practice shows that justice in these cases will be on the side of the employee.

How to quit your job without a job

Since this procedure may have several different reasons depending on the situation, the actions of the employee or the employer will also be different. This may include:

  • minimizing the period until the termination of the employment contract, if the employee needs to quit as soon as possible (for example, if a more attractive job was found);
  • reducing the time spent at work (for example, in a conflict with the team, the employee experiences discomfort while in such an environment).

By agreement of the parties

If the parties agree, the employee can be fired without working off two weeks, if the head is not against such termination of employment and has documented this decision, referring to Article 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. In many cases, this position will be more convenient for the employee than a two-week working off. However, in this case, it may take some time, because it is necessary to issue an appropriate order, the accounting department to make a calculation, and the personnel service to fill out a work book.

Sick leave

Being on sick leave, and having received an appropriate medical opinion about the impossibility of performing previous duties (for example, due to injury), the employee may quit of his own free will. In this case, he provides a disability certificate to the person responsible for maintaining the time sheet in the organization, and can be dismissed immediately upon completion of the sick leave. If the period is less than statutory 14 days to warn the director, the issue can be resolved by agreement of the parties.

Leave followed by dismissal

According to the law, you can go on another vacation and quit immediately after its completion. These may be situations labor law, when:

  • The employee wants to "walk" the days assigned to him and asks for leave, because he has the right to do so.
  • The employee, for various reasons (for example, suddenly found a new job), decides to issue an application while already on vacation. In this case, if there are 14 days or more left before the end of the vacation period, he will be dismissed immediately upon leaving the vacation. If this period is longer, then the issue can be resolved by agreement of the parties.

At the initiative of the employer

Article 81 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation considers situations where dismissal occurs at the initiative of the employer. These reasons can be divided into two groups. The first includes reasons beyond the control of the employee (for example, a reduction in staff, about which he must be warned no later than two months in advance). The second group is connected with the fault of the employee himself and does not provide for working off. This may be due to:

  • gross violation labor discipline(truancy, appearing at work in a state of intoxication, disclosing entrusted secrets, accidents due to violation of labor protection rules, committing a property crime);
  • repeated non-compliance labor functions without good reason;
  • when working with material values ​​- committing an act that undermines trust;
  • immoral action of a person performing educational functions.

Sample letter of resignation

In this case, the document is drawn up in the name of the director of the organization in which the employee works. The text is written in free form, but there should be all the necessary information:

  • In the header of the document it is written to whom it is intended and from whom, for example, to “Director of Boomerang LLC” Smirnov A.V. from the driver Ivanov A.S.”
  • Further, in the center of the line, the name of the document is written - “Statement”.
  • The basic part contains a request for dismissal without working off, if necessary, supported by a reference to the legislation, for example, “I ask you to dismiss me of your own free will without working off (according to Article 80 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation) from November 1, 2017 due to the transfer of my wife to work in another city (certificate is attached )".
  • At the end, the date and signature is put.

How to quit your job and why is it so important to do it right? Read the article.

If you had problems finding a vacancy, if you did not know, how to quit your job, if you had difficulty choosing a field of activity, this can only mean one thing: you are still not subscribed to the newsletter of articles from this most useful site.

It was not by chance that I started talking about topics that relate to work and career, because today we will touch on one of them.

I believe that everything should be done as well as possible.

It is necessary not only to start activities in a new place correctly, but also to part with the old team and boss without problems and scandal.

It is about how to quit, we will talk today.

Why is it so important to quit your job the right way?

Bosses, they are like girls from a stupid but popular song.

The bosses are different: black, white, red.

That is, someone was quite lucky with the boss, and someone got the true fiend of Hell.

And when you have a chance to escape from this demon (you find a new job), then an irresistible desire arises: to tell the bastard everything you think about him, and at the same time notify your colleagues about your “fe” about their obedience to the satrap .

This desire is quite understandable, but try to accumulate all your strength to drive it away.

The husband of one of my friends often repeats the phrase: “You need to leave so that you can always return.”

It seems to me that he is absolutely right, because you never know how your fate will turn, no one has canceled the boomerang law yet.

What if it doesn't work out for you in a new place?

What if you have to cooperate with the old?

And you have already burned all the bridges with no hope of their restoration.

Besides, try to look at this situation from the other side.

I once witnessed a disgusting picture of the departure of one of my colleagues, who did not know how to quit your job, so he threw a most disgusting scandal in the office.

He yelled, what idiots we all are, and what a scumbag our boss is.

It is clear that he seemed to himself a fighter against evil in a spotless cloak, but we saw only an ill-mannered loser with a bunch of complexes.

Mistakes of those who do not know how to quit their job


Not all people specifically try to leave by slamming the door louder.

For some, this comes naturally, because they simply do not know the rules for the ideal dismissal from work.

The most common mistakes when changing jobs look like this:

    The desire to break old ties in one fell swoop and at the same time take revenge on everyone who made you feel bad or hurt during your work.

    And you just need to leave, and at the same time save face.

    The delusion that you can do without maintenance good relations with former boss and colleagues.

    And what about the fact that you may well intersect with one of your colleagues at seminars, conferences, or anywhere else?

    The habit of telling nasty things about your old colleagues at a new place of work, about how much you had to endure while you worked in this branch of Hell.

    Particularly talented applicants begin to do this at the interview, and then they are surprised: “How is it that they didn’t take me ?!”.

    Unwillingness to defend their rights.

    You don’t need to scandal, but it’s necessary to talk (namely, talk, and not yell with a good obscenity) about compensating for unused vacation or about the timing of paying the rest of the salary.

    Manipulating the offer new job to get a pay raise or a management position.

    Idiots do not become bosses, so you will be seen through in a jiffy and provided with trouble.


It is quite simple to quit your job so as not to create problems for yourself or people.

The main thing is to follow these tips:

    Tell the first person that you are about to leave, namely the boss.

    Not half of the office in secret, but to his boss.

    It’s better to do it in private, and not shouting: “That’s it, goat, your dominance is over, I’m leaving for where they will love and respect me!” in front of the entire team.

    Remember that you must write a statement two weeks before leaving.

    Do not console yourself with hopes that you threw your application and were released after 5 minutes.

    A smart boss will be able to drink another bucket of your blood in these two weeks if you don’t resolve issues with him in an amicable way.

    Finish all your business.

    Do not leave tails for a new employee who comes to your place.

    Why do you need the curses that a newcomer will send trying to clear your blockages.

    Don't indulge your villainous instincts.

    Do not row paper clips, files, paper, push pins with both hands.

    Well, why do you need all this?

    To destroy with the help of unnecessary trash the remnants of self-respect?

    Don't get arrogant during the mandatory two-week work period.

    You don’t need to constantly be late and go home earlier, demonstrating with your behavior: “I don’t care, I almost don’t work here anymore.”

    See that you, as already almost unemployed here, are not paid the same salary for the last month.

    Leave gracefully, saying kind words to colleagues and boss.

    If this is accepted in your office, then you can even set a “waste” (set the table - this is a decoding for the slow-witted).

    Do not tell everyone in a row how good it will be for you, what prospects await you there.

    Hell, worse than the current one, may well await you there, and such stories will annoy colleagues and superiors.

  1. Remember that the results of your activities belong to the old office (unless otherwise stipulated by the contract), so you should not take these developments with you.
  2. Leave your work area clean.

    Clean out your desk drawers, throw away all unnecessary papers, and take your personal belongings with you.

    Leave with a smile on your face and gratitude to the people with whom you worked side by side, and to the boss, thanks to whom you had money for bread and butter.

    Even if there is nothing special to thank for, make an effort on yourself.

The tips in the video below will also be helpful.

Look, remember:

If you stick to these simple rules and avoid common mistakes, you will never feel ashamed of your actions again, as you did before when you did not know how to quit your job.
