I wish you and the company success in the future. I have greatly enjoyed my time working here.  \nI’d be grateful if you could confirm my leaving date, any accrued holidays and other benefit entitlements.  \nI hope to be of as much assistance as possible during this period of transition. Please let me know if there is anything specific I can  \ndo at this time. Yours sincerely  \nAmy Christie  \nAmy Christie  \nRemaining helpful will ensure you leave a good impression.  \nIt’s important you include the date you are giving notice of your resignation.  \nYour contact details  \nEnsure you understand your end of employment benefit position.  \nThe name and address of who you are giving notice to.  \nKeep the tone positive and professional.  \nResignation Letter Do’s and Don’ts  \n• Resign in person to your line manager wherever possible.  \n• Remain professional at all times.  \n• Include the fact that you’re resigning and the last day you will work, giving the correct notice as per your contract of employment.  \n• Thank the employer for the opportunities they have provided to you.  \n• Keep it simple and concise, there’s no need to include an explanation of why you are leaving.  \n• Offer to help during the transition for e.g. training a successor or updating operating procedures. Your employer will appreciate this.  \n• Ensure you understand when you will be paid your final salary, the holidays you have accrued and your benefits position, such as your accumulated pension entitlement.  \n• Remove any personal information that you may have stored on company phones or computers.  \n• Return any company property such as phone, computer, keys.  \n• Once your resignation has been accepted by your employer send a farewell note to your colleagues. It’s likely that many of the people you’ve worked with will have assisted you in your role and added to the enjoyment of working at the company, letting them know that you are moving on is courteous and a way of sharing your contact details for staying in touch in the future.  \n• Request a reference letter – you never know what the future might bring and it is good to receive a positive recommendation while your contribution is freshly remembered.  \n• Rush into a resignation. Make sure that you have accepted a written job offer for a new role that you really want before resigning.  \n• Do not use your resignation letter to express any frustrations you had with your employer orthe job.  \n• Similarly, your resignation letter is not the place to provide “constructive” criticism on your colleagues or line manager. Nor is your exit interview, which is an opportunity to share genuine ideas for improvement – remember leave with a good impression.  \n38 Albyn Place Aberdeen AB10 1YNT 01224 327 000 [E hello@tmmrecruitment.com](E hello@tmmrecruitment.com)[tmmrecruitment.com](tmmrecruitment.com)","cbCailSpE7YbUTYl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailSpE7YbUTYl","pdf",182321,"English","# Writing A Resignation Letter\n## Letter Structure and Key Details\n## Resignation Letter Do’s and Don’ts","[{\"question\":\"What should the resignation letter clearly state?\",\"answer\":\"It should state that you are resigning and provide your last day of work effective from the notice date.\"},{\"question\":\"Does the template require an explanation for the resignation reasons?\",\"answer\":\"No. The template advises keeping the letter simple and concise and not including reasons for leaving.\"},{\"question\":\"What should you ask for regarding your employment end entitlements?\",\"answer\":\"Request confirmation of your leaving date, accrued holidays, final salary payment timing, and other benefit entitlements such as pension.\"}]","Resignation Letter Template | PDF",1789482600]
