Forced resignation is a harmful practice where employees are pressured into quitting their jobs without being formally terminated. This often occurs when companies face financial difficulties or seek to avoid the legal obligations associated with layoffs.


Victims of forced resignation experience significant financial hardship, emotional distress, and career setbacks. It's a practice that undermines employee morale, damages company reputation, and erodes trust in the workplace.



Common tactics used to force resignations include:

  • Unreasonable workload: Increasing work demands without additional compensation or support.

  • Hostile work environment: Creating a toxic atmosphere to make employees feel unwelcome.

  • Withholding benefits: Delaying or denying pay, vacation time, or other entitlements.

  • Demotion or transfer: Reassigning employees to less desirable positions or locations.



It's crucial to recognize the signs of forced resignation and protect yourself. If you suspect you're being pressured to quit, document everything, seek legal advice, and reach out to support organizations.
