I've been working at a restaurant in Panama City for 2 years without any benefits and I want to change jobs. I went to the Ministry of Labor for guidance and they told me I need to either resign or get fired in order to claim my severance pay. Can the Ministry of Labor make the employer pay me all my severance pay?

I would say yes, but it takes a long time

You'll need proof of your employment relationship and economic dependence to get help. If your employer paid you a certain amount and sent you messages with instructions, print out those messages and take them to the relevant office. It might take a while.
