To write a proper resignation letter, the key points include stating your intention to resign in the subject line, clarifying the reason for your decision, expressing gratitude for the job opportunity, and offering transition assistance before you leave.
Many people leave their jobs when they're faced with personal reasons like health issues or family emergencies. You don't need to disclose personal or family matters. Sometimes, saying, “I had to leave for personal and family reasons,” is enough as long as you explain why you're ready to reenter the workforce.
Provide a reason for leaving (optional): If you feel comfortable doing so, you can provide a brief reason for your resignation. Keep this explanation professional and concise.
Example: ``I am looking for a position that allows for better work-life balance, which is important for my personal well-being.'' When communicating your reason, keep it brief, positive, and professional. It's also a good idea to express gratitude for the opportunities you had in your current role.
I have decided to resign due to personal reasons that require my immediate attention. I appreciate the opportunities and experiences that I have gained while working at Company Name, and I am grateful for the support and guidance provided by my colleagues and superiors.
Please accept this letter as my resignation from the position of your position at company, with my last day of work to be date. Due to family commitments, I'm unable to continue in this role. This has been a difficult decision, as I've enjoyed my time at company and have grown close to my colleagues.
Your intention to resign, last day of work, and an expression of gratitude are the key elements to include on a resignation letter. You could also mention a general reason for leaving, but it's not necessary. Keep it short and professional.
You do not even have to write a resignation letter at all. If they do ask you to put something in writing you still do not need to state a reason. Just say you are leaving and state your last day of work. That's it.
You don't need to explain why you're leaving in your resignation letter. But, choosing to do so allows you to give context and provide feedback, which can help you maintain a positive relationship.
