Resigning

What the law says

• You resign by registered letter, or by having your employer sign a copy of the letter (Art. L. 124-4).
• Your notice is half of what the employer would owe you (Art. L. 124-4): one month with less than five years’ service, two months with five to under ten years, three months with ten years or more (Art. L. 124-3).
• Notice starts on the 15th of the month if the letter arrives before the 15th, otherwise on the 1st of the next month (Art. L. 124-4 and L. 124-3).
