An employee can resign with immediate effect, but it may breach their employment contract if they fail to work their required notice period. Can an employer refuse a resignation with immediate effect? Employers cannot refuse a resignation, as employees have the right to resign.
The purpose of this letter is to acknowledge receipt and acceptance of the attached written voluntary resignation of date which you hand-delivered / mailed / emailed to name, title, at time. Based upon this letter, your resignation is effective date at time.
Your response should include an acknowledgment of the resignation, the confirmation of the last working day, any necessary steps for the transition, and well-wishes for the employee's future endeavors. Also, encourage the employee to stay in touch.
Keep your letter brief and to the point. Your letter should formally acknowledge the employee's resignation, confirm their last day of employment and wish them the best. You may also want to include any expectations for what they should anticipate before leaving or create next steps or hard dates for offboarding tasks.
If an employee resigns without notice, there are in effect two options for you as an employer; you can either choose to accept their resignation with immediate effect, or you could look to enforce any relevant applicable notice period.
In cases where immediate resignation causes disruption or financial loss, employers may have grounds to claim breach of contract. Potential remedies include withholding payment for the unworked notice period or, in rare cases, pursuing legal action for damages.
Employees opting for immediate resignation are expected to provide a resignation letter expressing their intention to leave the employment immediately. While the Labor Code prescribes a notice period (usually 30 days), immediate resignation circumvents this, placing emphasis on the reasons behind such a decision.
Dear (Recipient's Name), I am writing to inform you of my immediate resignation from my position at (Company Name). After careful consideration, I have decided that it is in my best interest to conclude my employment with (Company Name) effective immediately.
Dear Employee Name, I am writing to formally acknowledge receipt of your resignation notice on date. As you requested, your final day of work at Company Name will be end date. It is with great regret that we see you go.
The following are the things to keep in mind when writing an immediate resignation letter: Write the date first. Explain only necessities. Remain professional. Include questions. Be grateful. Add contact information. Proofread your letter. Make copies and hand-deliver the letters.
