How Many Days in Advance Must an Employee Give Notice for Resignation Due to Health Reasons?

Employees requesting to leave their job due to health reasons must give prior notice as required by law, depending on the type of fixed-term contract.

According to Article 37 of the 2012 Labor Code:

Employees working under a fixed-term labor contract, a seasonal labor contract, or a job-specific labor contract with a term of less than 12 months have the right to unilaterally terminate the labor contract before its expiration in the following cases:

- The employee is sick or has suffered an accident and has received continuous treatment for 90 days in the case of those working under a fixed-term labor contract, and a quarter of the contract duration in the case of those working under a seasonal labor contract or a job-specific labor contract with a term of less than 12 months, and is still unable to recover working capability.

...

- When unilaterally terminating the labor contract, the employee must give at least 30 days' notice if it is a fixed-term labor contract.

Thus, according to this regulation, in the case of signing a fixed-term contract, when unilaterally terminating the labor contract due to illness, the employee must give at least 30 days' notice.

Sincerely!
