So my uni has now included a “no resignation” clause in next year’s contracts. It’s my first year getting this type of contract, so maybe it’s always been there, but it seems strange – not to mention probably ultimately unenforceable.

    I can’t imagine it’s enforceable, but maybe I’m wrong. I’ve never heard of other universities including it. It’s a real asshole move anyway though. Who tells someone they can’t quit?

      Even more interesting, what are they planning to do to make people want to leave mid-year?

      I’m not a lawyer, but in context and with the wording they’ve chosen, it seems that the worst they can do is to end employment of anyone who resigns – which would be the whole point in the first place.
