Florida operates based on at-will employment. This means that employers can terminate employees at any time without reason or notice. This law also gives employees the right to quit without providing a reason or notice.
To resign from your position, complete and submit a resignation letter to your supervisor at least two weeks, or as soon as possible, before your last day.
Most companies ask you to deliver your resignation letter to your direct supervisor. You may also write to a letter to someone else, such as a more senior manager or member of human resources. Your employee handbook may have information about whom to address when sending a resignation letter.
The standard “two weeks' notice” is not required. (Although, unless you are leaving a hostile environment or unsafe working conditions, agreeing to a “notice” work period when quitting is usually better than burning bridges.)
Florida is an at-will employment state. Unless they have hired you for a specific length of time (contract for one year, for example ), you can quit with a weeks notice, two weeks notice, or no notice at all.
The items you include are: A clear statement that expresses your intention to resign. Provide the proper amount of notice. Offer a transition plan. A short explanation about why you're leaving. A polite expression of gratitude. A statement about your immediate departure from the company. Criticism of your colleagues.
Recipient: Address the HR department or your direct manager/boss. Purpose: Clearly state you're resigning from your position. Departure date: Include your intended last working day. Reason for leaving: If you choose to, briefly mention why you're leaving (e.g., spending time with family, relocating).
