Validation of Resignations by Working Parents Required Even During the Probationary Period

News Flash No. 24/2025

In Note No. 14744/2025, the Ministry of Labor and Social Policy clarified that the validation of resignation under Article 55, Paragraph 4 of Legislative Decree No. 151/2001 is also required during the probationary period.

The validation of resignation at the National Labor Inspectorate is part of a complex regulatory framework aimed at strengthening the rights related to maternity and paternity, taking the form of a protective tool designed to ensure the genuineness of the will of the worker at a particularly sensitive time in family life. Validation is seen as an important means of guaranteeing the working parent's freedom of choice during the protected period. Accordingly, the resignation of a pregnant worker or a parent mother or father during the first three years of the child's life must be validated at the Labor Inspectorate or validated by the territorially competent labor inspection office, in accordance with Article 55 paragraph 4 of Legislative Decree No. 151/2001, even if submitted during the probationary period.
