If the labor relationship has been terminated for one year, can I complain to the original unit?

If an employee establishes an employment relationship with an employer, and the employee and the employer have terminated the labor contract relationship, the statute of limitations for labor arbitration has expired for more than one year, and the employee cannot legally claim his legitimate rights and interests.

The limitation period for applying for arbitration of labor disputes is one year. The limitation period for arbitration shall be calculated from the date on which the parties know or should know that their rights have been infringed, and if the employment relationship is terminated, it shall be filed within one year from the date of termination of the employment relationship.

Article 27 The limitation period for applying for arbitration of labor disputes shall be one year. The limitation period for arbitration shall be calculated from the date on which the parties knew or should have known that their rights had been infringed.

The statute of limitations for arbitration provided for in the preceding paragraph shall be interrupted when one of the parties claims rights against the other party, or requests rights and remedies from the relevant authorities, or the other party agrees to perform its obligations. From the time of interruption, the arbitration limitation period is recalculated.

Where the parties are unable to apply for arbitration within the limitation period provided for in paragraph 1 of this Article due to force majeure or other legitimate reasons, the limitation period for arbitration shall be suspended. The limitation period for arbitration shall continue to run from the date on which the reasons for the suspension are eliminated.

If a dispute arises due to arrears of labor remuneration during the existence of the labor relationship, the employee's application for arbitration shall not be subject to the limitation period for arbitration as provided for in the first paragraph of this Article; However, if the labor relationship is terminated, it shall be filed within one year from the date of termination of the labor relationship.

According to the labor law, it can be retroactive for one year, starting from the time of resignation.

Legal analysis: If the original employer does not terminate the labor contract, the employee may apply for labor arbitration.

Legal basis: Labor Contract Law of the People's Republic of China

Article 37 A worker may terminate a labor contract by notifying the employer in writing 30 days in advance. The employee may terminate the labor contract by notifying the employer three days in advance during the probationary period.
