Article 628Cancellation of Employment Due to Compelling Reasons

第六百二十八条(やむを得ない事由による雇用の解除)

Even if the parties have specified a term of employment, either party may immediately cancel the contract if there is a compelling reason to do so. In these cases, if the reasons arise from the negligence of either one of the parties, that party is liable to the other party for damages.

当事者が雇用の期間を定めた場合であっても、やむを得ない事由があるときは、各当事者は、直ちに契約の解除をすることができる。この場合において、その事由が当事者の一方の過失によって生じたものであるときは、相手方に対して損害賠償の責任を負う。
