FAQs
What happens if I resign during an investigation?
If you resign during an investigation, it doesn’t necessarily stop the process. The investigation might still proceed to its conclusion, potentially affecting your professional reputation and future employment prospects, even if you’re no longer with the organization.
Can you quit while you’re suspended?
Yes, you can quit while suspended. However, quitting doesn’t necessarily terminate the suspension or its consequences. Your employment status and any pending disciplinary actions would likely be addressed according to company policies and employment laws, irrespective of your decision to resign.
Can I be suspended with immediate effect?
Yes, you can be suspended with immediate effect, especially in situations where there’s a serious allegation or concern that requires immediate action to protect the organization’s interests or ensure a fair investigation. Immediate suspension is often used when there’s a risk to company assets, reputation, or other employees.
