Resigning is the most common reason for termination of employment at Umeå University.
If you choose to resign you have to complete the resignation form via PASS and enter the date of your last day of employment. The form will be sent to your manager who shall approve your notice.
You will receive your manager's decision by email from PASS. If your last day of employment is earlier than the contractual notice your manager will contact you if she/he does not approve of your notice.
