Federated Insurance’s HR Question of the Month focuses on employment-related practices liability issues. This month’s question is: Employee Notice Period. We had an employee give his two weeks’ notice today; he wants to work for the next two weeks and then voluntarily leave our company. However, this individual has not been a good employee and will add little value to our organization for the next two weeks. We would rather just tell him that his resignation is effective immediately and not have to pay him for another two weeks. Are we allowed to accelerate his notice period and make his resignation effective immediately? Please click here to read the response.
