Notice of resignation
39 Notice of resignation
Subject to these regulations, a prescribed employee who seeks to resign must give the Chief Executive at least 6 weeks' prior notice in writing of that intention to resign.
Despite subregulation (1)—
a prescribed employee who is on maternity leave (or long service leave taken during maternity leave) may resign at any time during that leave on giving the Chief Executive at least 2 weeks' prior notice in writing of her intention to resign; and
a prescribed employee appointed on a temporary basis may resign on giving the Chief Executive at least 2 weeks' prior notice in writing of their intention to do so.
The Chief Executive may, where reasonable cause exists, waive notice of resignation and permit a resignation to take effect at a time other than that provided for in this regulation.
If a prescribed employee resigns without complying with this regulation, the Chief Executive may, by notice in writing, require the employee to pay to TAFE SA—
in the case of a failure to comply with subregulation (1)—an amount not exceeding
6 weeks' salary of that employee; or
in the case of a failure to comply with subregulation (2)(b)—an amount not exceeding
2 weeks' salary of that employee.
If a prescribed employee fails to pay an amount required to be paid under this regulation, the amount may be recovered as a debt due and owing by the employee to TAFE SA.
