العواقب المترتبة على استقالة العامل أثناء فترة اختباره

Article (121) of Law /8/ of 1980 stipulates that “A worker may abandon his work without notice in either of the following cases:

1- If the employer fails to honour his obligations towards the worker, as provided for in the contract or in this law.

2- If he is assaulted by the employer or the employer's legal representative."

Where Article (116) of same law stipulates that “Where a contract is revoked by the worker for reasons other than those specified in Article (121), he shall be required to compensate the employer for any damage the latter sustains as a result, provided that the amount of compensation shall not exceed half a month's wage for three months or for the remaining period of the contract, whichever is shorter, unless otherwise stipulated in the contract.”

Accordingly, you may be aware that since you have entered the labour contract with the employer, and you are not following any of the cases as mentioned under article (121) of the labour law, you will be required to compensate the employer for any damage the latter sustains as a result, provided that the amount of compensation shall not exceed half a month's wage for three months or for the remaining period of the contract, whichever is shorter, unless otherwise stipulated in the contract.
