5 minute read While employers may wish for their employees to stay with them for a long time and to grow their business along with them, the reality is that employees come and go. In the same way employers do not have to continue working with employees who fall short of their expectations, employees can leave when they find another position they value more. In fact, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) clearly states that “all employees, including those on fixed term contract, can resign at any time, as long as they serve the require notice”. In short, employers cannot reject an employee’s resignation.
