Sample Resignation Letters

Example resignation letter 1:

Dear NAME,

Please accept this as notice of my resignation from my position as INSERT, with effect from DATE.

As detailed in my contract, I am happy to continue to work until DATE / for NUMBER OF WEEKS NOTICE PERIOD.

In closing, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to you as my JOB TITLE, as well as to my many friends and colleagues at COMPANY.

Yours sincerely,


Example resignation letter 2:

Dear NAME,

I am writing to formally inform you that I tender my resignation from the position of INSERT with effect from DATE.

I understand from my contract that I am required to work a INSERT notice period, meaning that my leaving date will be DATE.

I thank you for your support during my time with COMPANY NAME, which I have found enjoyable and fulfilling.

Yours sincerely,

If you have holiday entitlement owing, add a paragraph like this:

Could you please confirm to me any holiday entitlement that has not yet been taken, and whether you are willing to reduce my notice period to take this into account, or perhaps buy out this entitlement, retaining me until notice has been fully worked?

    I was taken off the schedule for 2 weeks, as per my supervisor, and my last day of work was 2-24-09, the company didn’t fire me, but is keeping me off the schedule and refuses to allow me to claim unemployement insurance, they just fired an African American lady doing the exact same job as i was doing but she’s collecting, she was fired, someone else is working at my job, and whats unbelievable is these people my bosses, called my house to harass me after 930pm at night, they commited reverse discrimination, and theirs about 10 other things that was done to me in trying to force me to quit. I haven’t resigned yet but i have no money comming in, my wife and i support her mother, she lives with us,only my wifes check is all thats comming in also i have proof that these idiots were paying a supervisor under the table. I was a chemical engineer for 20 years until the big layoff, and i have been working for this security co. for 2 years.
