What to do when employer is inducing you to resign

Constructive discharge occurs when an employee quits because working conditions have become so intolerable that any reasonable person would have no other option. The concept of constructive dismissal is, however, not expressly provided for in the Employment Act. The Act does not give a guide on constructive dismissal.

The concept has, however, received sufficient attention in the courts as reflected in the rich jurisprudence in the decided cases, setting out what can fairly be considered as general guidelines.
