I have been working for an insurance company on an unlimited contract. I couldn’t fulfil the company’s target within eight months of joining so they decided to terminate my position by stating that three chances were given to me up until the end of September. To make it easier to find a new job, is it better to resign or accept the termination from the company? GP, Abu Dhabi
Due to the fact that anyone who leaves employment after less than one year of service can receive an employment ban of six months, it is invariably better to accept the redundancy, rather than to resign, particularly in circumstances such as this.
