Kündma

Kündma is a term that originates from Estonian and is used to describe the act of "giving notice" or "terminating a contract" or "employment." It is a formal process that requires adherence to specific legal and contractual procedures. The word itself implies a formal declaration of intent to end an agreement. In the context of employment, kündma signifies an employee or employer formally informing the other party of their decision to end the employment relationship. This typically involves a written notice period, as stipulated by Estonian labor law or the employment contract itself. Failure to follow the correct kündma procedure can lead to legal complications for both parties. Beyond employment, kündma can also apply to other contractual arrangements such as rental agreements or service contracts. The core concept remains the same: a formal notification to terminate an existing obligation. Understanding the nuances of kündma is crucial for anyone operating within the Estonian legal and business framework to ensure smooth and lawful contract terminations.
