I'm not trying to bump this topic. However, it states in my
contract the following verbatum
'All notices of termination of employment, whether given by us
or by you, must be given in writing'.

Arguably, an email is "in writing", as opposed to verbally.

Okay if the content is as below, would this constitute it being
in writing. Notably, the content does start of Dear Name.
It is with some regret that I am handing in my resignation, as
of today the 23rd June 2025.
By my reckoning, due to the 6.5 days holiday and one day unpaid
holiday, my last day will be on 11th July lunchtime
If the company still wishes me to attend the wiring regulations
course, on 1st July, I am more than willing to attend.
Kind regards
My name
Per Ardua Ad Astra
Through Adversity to the stars

I'm no expert on this and SP may well know have the answer.
I would have thought the basis of a constructive dismissal case
would be the company actions that drove an employee to to submit
a resignation in the first instance. The fact he tried to recind
imo would be in his favour and the company's decision not to
allow it would strengthen his case?

I think the spin the company would put on it would be that his
attempt to revoke his resignation would indicate that there had
been no breakdown in mutual trust and confidence.

I genuinely do not know why they refused to accept my with
drawal. I have not been given any warnings or informal warnings.
I have recently refused to work on high voltage switchgear, as
we don't have the appropriate PPE.
I've pretty much accepted that the company will not change their
mind, as my job was advertised internally, yesterday.
I don't know if it would be of any benefit to me, to put in a
SAR, and try to establish what went wrong. Do I have to have a
genuine reason for a SAR.

How would a SAR establish what went wrong?

On 16th May applied for a 4 day a week as the previous month I
received my state pension. On 29th May I received a letter with
the below partial quotation of that flexible meeting:
'Having given the matter thorough consideration, I regret that,
at this moment, I am unable to agree to your request.
Implementing this flexible working arrangement would mean that
the work cannot be reorganised among other staff due to current
staffing levels, as we are understaffed and actively recruiting
an additional team member.'
