Constructive Dismissal is a fancy term resignation. Since it’s resignation it’s voluntary and consenting of the associate resigning. So unless it’s proven before or after the resignation was forced unlawfully, then it doesn’t apply. The proof must be admissible and meet the requirements of burden of proof.
Note: Even if you place burden of proof on the other side successfully, they could provide evidence shifting that burden back on you. This will go back and forth until one party no longer has evidence to shift it back to the other party.
