On: Can your employer fire you after you quit?

[rlpb]

Citation please? I was under the impression that UK employers always need to give a (valid) reason. The only change at two years of which I'm aware is that this is the point at which redundancy payments (US: severence pay) starts to become due in case of redundancy.

Qualifying period to claim unfair dismissal at tribunal is 2 years: https://www.gov.uk/dismissal/what-to-do-if-youre-dismissed

That doesn't necessarily legalise unfair dismissal for the employer though, does it?
