Resignation services

Resignation services (退職代行サービス, Taishoku daikō sābisu) is a type of service offered by Japanese companies that communicate employees' resignation plans to their employers. The service is used to avoid trouble with resigning. Use of resignation services has increased since 2017, and companies have increased wages along with other benefits to prevent the loss of human resources. Debates about whether resignation services carried out by non-lawyers are illegal or not have occurred before, although the boundaries of the Lawyer's Act is not clearly defined.
