While you might be able to quit at any time, California's labor laws do require you to give at least 72 hours' notice if you want your final paycheck at the time you leave. Employees who do not give three days' notice or more must wait three days for their employer to deliver or mail their paycheck.
Express gratitude for the employee's service and contributions to the organization. Acknowledge their hard work and the value they provided. Wish the employee well in their future endeavors. Convey that you support their decision and hope they find success in their next role.
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.
Issue a Formal Response Be in a formal business letter format. State acceptance of resignation. Show compassion and offer support. Be proofread. Be saved.
In California, you must receive your final paycheck immediately if you get terminated or resign with at least 72 hours' notice. If you quit without notice, then your employer has 72 hours to give you your final paycheck.

Resignation with immediate effect occurs when an employee informs their employer that they are leaving their role without providing the notice period required by their contract. It is an unusual situation and can have significant implications for both the employee and the employer.
Health and Safety Issues: If the employee's safety or health is at serious risk in the workplace, immediate resignation may be justified. Mutual Agreement: If the employer agrees to waive the notice period, the resignation can take effect immediately without legal consequences.
