He's at breaking point, which is obviously their aim, and could not bear to work the 4 weeks notice, as outlined in his contract of employment, and just wants to know if he can safely leave with one week's notice without any comeback.
His superiors seem hell bent on forcing him out -
Not sure what you mean by breaking point but if this relates to a medical/psychiatric condition (e.g. stress, depression, burnout etc.) then his GP should be able to certify him for time off on medical grounds.He's at breaking point, which is obviously their aim, and could not bear to work the 4 weeks notice
Then his employers are breaking the law as he is working more than 48 hours a week over a long period of time and is not getting rest periods.I'm asking on behalf of someone who is currently very stressed in his place of work. Working 12 to 15 hours a day, with sometimes no days off in the week i.e working 12 to 14 days straight without a day off, and constantly being given extra duties and responsibilities.
If this is the case he has a strong case for constructive dismissal. He may wish to get advice from a solicitor.His superiors seem hell bent on forcing him out - they have made numerous references in the past to his salary level and the latest comment was that 'he had become too Irish' (he's not Irish) when he tried to defend himself and say that he was unable to take on any extra work as he was already well over the limit.
