Yes Amruta, forcing an employee to resign can be grounds for an unfair dismissal claim if the employee can prove they were forced to resign. A resignation is considered voluntary, and a forced resignation is not. If an employee is forced to resign due to unacceptable behavior from their employer, they can prove this and claim unfair dismissal. Whether a forced resignation is illegal depends on the circumstances.
