So my uni has now included a “no resignation” clause in next year’s contracts. It’s my first year getting this type of contract, so maybe it’s always been there, but it seems strange – not to mention probably ultimately unenforceable.

    That’s very odd. I think I’d start enquiring as to what the damages are - they can’t force you to work (slavery is still illegal) so do they intend to force you to pay the difference between your wage and the wage of whomever is brought in to fill the gap?

      That’s a good question. I don’t see how, given the wording, they can do anything other than terminate the employee who’s resigning.
