resolução com justa causa

resolução com justa causa (resigning because of the employer's fault)
The worker leaves immediately, without working a notice period, because the employer has broken the law: wages unpaid for 60 days, harassment, dangerous conditions. The worker must inform the employer in writing within 30 days and is owed 15 to 45 days' basic salary for each year worked, with a minimum of three months' salary (Código do Trabalho, articles 394–396).
Where you come across it. Late wages, harassment and other breaches by the employer.
In court, you can rely only on what is written in your resignation letter.
