The thesis analyses an employee's right to withdraw a resignation letter under Article 161 of the Labour Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan and Resolution No. 26 of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of 20 November 2023. A comparison with Article 80 of the Labour Code of the Russian Federation shows that the national approach is more favourable to the employee. The paper highlights problems arising in practice: shortening of the notice period, refusal to accept the withdrawal, the absence of a prescribed form for withdrawal, and employees' lack of awareness of this right. Proposals for improving legislation and practical recommendations for employees are put forward to make this right effective in practice.
