although in some coutries if you have a contract and quit there are consquences and penelties but generally speaking a company can not hold you to a job. Not even a government can make you stay. Of course with the latther of that being said some governments will say you can quit but your family & friends may never see or find you again! So, I'd be careful if I were you.

one month notice is the normal requirement. but certain jobs due to their nature of work are flexible. i think you should get a copy of the labour law which should answer your question. trust me there are loop holes.....but beware of the contract you signed....
