How can I resign?

Questioner

I have a question about how I should proceed in order to be able to leave my employer. I became sick in 2021 due to a double hernia, I underwent surgery for this, recovery was difficult. On the advice of the occupational health and safety service, I went back to work. I work in transport as a truck driver. Now the work does not take into account what the occupational health and safety service advised, I have indicated several times that the journeys are too long and too far, but no response is given. Now there have been phone conversations with the employer and me and with the planner and me. The employer has often stated that he no longer has confidence in it and the planner said that I better look for another job and that this is no longer working like this. I was shocked by that and let everything sink in and I also came to the conclusion that I actually don't want to work for them anymore. I think the way they treat staff is unacceptable. Now I would like to know what I can do best. So I just want to get out of there and I have the idea that they want to get rid of me too. If I resign I will lose all my rights and then I have to pay back the courses that I have followed that I need for my work. Is there anything that I can imagine that the employment contract of indefinite duration be terminated so that I still have the right to UWV and that I do not have to pay back the courses. And how quickly can something like that be arranged? Because everything is getting under my skin, if I even talk about this I already get a very bad feeling and I don't want that anymore. I hope you can give me more text and explanation what I can do in this situation. I want to come out normal without court etc. just as adults.

In principle, it is always possible to terminate an employment contract with a settlement agreement. This is also called dismissal by mutual consent. This means that you and your employer make agreements about the termination of the agreement. If the wording is chosen well, this will not affect your unemployment benefit rights, for example. In this case, that could be a solution if you both want to end the agreement. In such an agreement, you can also make agreements about study costs, etc. How quickly this can be done also depends on the notice period of your contract.

In addition to the above text, it is very important to have an idea of ​​whether you are now fully fit for work again. If you agree to a settlement agreement during illness, you will not be eligible for unemployment benefits. If you have any questions about this, you can always contact us.
