Legal Question in Immigration Law in Illinois

Green Card Process steps

My employer filed my Greencard, & currently it is still waiting for Labour clearance. After the Labor is cleared, if I resign to the job with my current employer and join a new company, can they continue my greencard from there i.e., can they file my I-140 & I-485, based on the Labor approved for me earlier?
