Employee Notice of Resignation
黑料不打烊 understands that many circumstances arise that may necessitate resigning from employment. If an employee decides to resign, which an employee may do at any time for any reason, they should notify their supervisor or department head in writing in advance of the resignation effective date. Executive Staff should give sixty (60) days’ notice; Exempt Staff should give thirty (30) days’ notice; Non-Exempt Staff should give fourteen (14) days’ notice and Faculty members should give as far in advance notice as possible. Staff members who give insufficient notice of termination are not eligible for re-employment. Employees may not use vacation in any manner to extend their employment ending date. If an employee’s decision to resign is based upon a situation that could be corrected, the employee is encouraged to discuss it with a supervisor, a department head, or Human Resources before making a final decision.
Accelerating Notice of Resignation
In appropriate circumstances, the College may accelerate an employee’s notice of resignation and make it effective immediately or on any other date. Under these circumstances, an employee will be paid through the last day worked.
The College’s Right to Terminate Employment
An employment relationship with administrative/professional staff at the College is on an at-will basis. Therefore, the College has the right to terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause or notice. In situations when Centenary terminates a staff member’s employment, it is in the best interest of the employee and the College to make the termination effective immediately.
Exit Interview
If an employee resigns employment, his or her supervisor, department head, or Human Resources may request that the employee participates in an exit interview. The primary purposes of an exit interview are to review benefit eligibility, to ensure that all necessary documents have been completed, and to provide the employee with an opportunity to discuss job-related experiences. If an employee wishes to initiate an exit interview, the employee should contact Human Resources.
