Last working day at dismissal

In the case when such difficulties arise, the first step is to look at the Labour Code of the Russian Federation. And ask the organization if it agrees to the dismissal of the employee.


Article 80 of the Labor Code says that an employee is entitled to terminate the contract of employment by informing his employer in writing at least two weeks. At the end of this period the employee may cease work and to demand from the authorities of the calculation. It is also possible to dismiss a worker until the end of the notification period for dismissal, but only with the consent of the employer and the employee. The employer and employee may also come to an agreement and the specific date of dismissal.

In some cases, the authorities must terminate an employment contract on the date specified by the employee in the statement. These situations include the inability of the worker to continue their activities for various good reasons. For example, because enrollment in the UNIVERSITY or College on-campus, or moving, or due to retirement, etc.

This day will be his last work in the company. The only exception is if the worker, despite the official save them for the workplace, was not present there.

According to article 14 of the Labour Code of the Russian Federation, the official date of the warning of the authorities of dismissal is the day following the filing of the application. Accordingly, the countdown of two weeks starts from that day.

That is, if the statement was provided to the Director for consideration by March 1, the countdown is two weeks, will start from March 2.
