Dismissal from the police

Yes, it is possible to resign without working for three months.

Pursuant to Clause 68 of Regulation No. 114, rank-and-file and senior officers who have expressed a desire to resign from service at their personal request shall notify the direct head of the internal affairs body of their decision no later than three months before the date of dismissal, on which a report shall be submitted to the command.

The Supreme Court, in its ruling No. 826/7075/16 dated August 11, 2021, concluded that within the time limit provided for in Clause 68 of the Regulations from the date of submission of the dismissal report the parties to the employment contract have the right to agree on dismissal in a shorter period.

Such an agreement, in particular, should be considered the indication in the report of the specific date from which (before which) the police officer wishes to resign from the service before the end of the period provided for in Clause 68 of the Regulations and the consent of the authorized body to release this employee within the period determined by it.
