Constructive Dismissal Sample Clauses

A Constructive Dismissal clause defines the circumstances under which an employee may consider themselves to have been dismissed, even if the employer has not formally terminated their employment. Typically, this applies when the employer makes significant changes to the employee’s working conditions, such as reducing pay, demoting the employee, or altering job responsibilities without consent. The core function of this clause is to protect employees from unfair treatment by allowing them to resign and still claim dismissal if the employer’s actions fundamentally breach the employment contract.
