When the time comes to leave a job, for any reason, formal notice is required to establish the legal cessation of benefit coverage and vacation accumulation. Certain pieces of information must be included, but more importantly there are important statements to leave out of the resignation letter.

Regardless of your professional relationship with your immediate supervisor, the resignation letter should not be the first indication that you are leaving. Have a conversation with that person and respectfully share your need to resign. Depending on your situation you may want to share your next career move and the reason you are resigning. Think of this meeting from the other person’s point of view and how you would want to be treated.

In your letter of resignation, include your current mailing address as it appears in your personnel file, and your new address, if applicable.

You’ve been scouting the Internet and other books for the best resignation letters because you are quitting your job soon. You’ve also realized that there is no such thing as the perfect resignation letter, so here are some suggestions on how to make your resignation letter leave a good impression on your bosses.

Be honest. State the reason why you decided to resign from your post and make it sound like it was a hard decision to make and you had no choice. If the reason is too personal and you’d rather keep it private, then you may use the “personal reasons” card. Just be sure to be ready for an answer when the time comes for your exit interview.

Comments Off Categories: Medical Reasons
Tags: , ,

Dear ________

It is with deep regret that I must submit this letter to you. As you may know, I have enjoyed working with this company for ____ years now and would love to be able to continue to do so.

However, due to illness, I find that I must tender my resignation, effective _________. Hopefully, this date will allow you ample time to find a suitable replacement for me. If it were feasible to continue in your employ, I would certainly choose that route, but this is not a possibility with my current health situation.

I have come to think of my co-workers here as part of my family and will certainly miss each one of you. Working with such fine people has added much to my life, and I will always fondly remember the time I spent here. I feel that I have learned much from this job, not only in technical skills, but in dealing with others.

Hopefully, when my recovery is complete, I will be able to again re-enter the job market, and would appreciate any consideration you might give me with respect to employment with your company at that time.

Thank you for your confidence in me. I hope I was able to contribute to the success of the company. I will truly miss you all as well as my work but will try to stay in touch as much as possible. I’m confident your business will continue to thrive and enjoy much success and prosperity in the days ahead.

Sincerely,
Your Name

Sample Letter of Resignation

September 2, 2008

Dear Mr. / Ms. Smith,

It is with deep regret that I am writing this letter to notify you of my immediate resignation from the position of JOB TITLE with COMPANY NAME. This decision was made due to personal medical issues that have recently surfaced. Unfortunately the nature of my condition renders it necessary that I stop working effective today. I am aware of the inconveniences this will cause for you, and I can only offer you my most sincere apology.

Please know that this decision is medically necessary, and I have no other reason or desire to leave my job. My time working with you for COMPANY NAME has been an enjoyable experience. I cannot project how long I will have to undergo treatment, except that my recovery will exceed the acceptable time frame for me to request a medical leave, otherwise I would do so. I understand my abrupt departure may leave you with some questions about the current state of what I am working on, so plese feel free to e-maill me if there is something you think I can help you with. In the meantime, I will type up any notes I can think of and send them to you via e-mail.

I know that there may not be any positions open with COMPANY NAME that fit my qualifications when I have fully recovered. If that may be, I ask that you might provide me with a letter of recommendation to send out along with my resume. We can discuss it further when the time comes.

I truly want to thank you especially for being such a fair and honest employer, and for everything you have taught me in our time working together. As I said before, I resorted to this as a last measure, and if not for my health situation I would not be writing this letter. This has been a difficult time for me, but I know that I must take care of my health, that is what is most important right now. I hope that you understand why I am not able to give any notice at all, it is only because the situation is that dire.

Once again, I appreciate all you and COMPANY NAME have done for me, and honestly hope that we may have the opportunity to work together again one day in the future.

Sincerely,

JOHN DOE
