- Description
- This treatise provides a comprehensive analysis of the legal framework governing resignations in South Africa. It examines the statutory provisions, regulations, and general principles that underpin employment termination, with a focus on voluntary resignation, constructive dismissal, and termination during disciplinary proceedings. Through an analysis of important case law, the treatise explores the practical challenges and legal ambiguities employers and employees face when navigating the resignation process. The treatise also conducts a detailed comparative legal analysis of resignation laws, focusing on the United Kingdom’s approach and how it contrasts with and could potentially inform legal practices in South Africa. Based on the findings, the treatise proposes several recommendations for improving the legal framework governing resignations in South Africa, including enacting clearer statutory guidelines, encouraging consistent judicial rulings, adopting best practices from the United Kingdom’s legal system, and facilitating stakeholder engagement. By implementing these recommendations, South Africa can create a more coherent legal framework for resignations, promoting fairness, certainty, and efficiency in employer-employee relations.
