In Utah, employees can quit without giving notice, as it is an at-will employment state. However, providing notice is often considered a professional courtesy and may be required by contract in some cases.
Because Utah is an at-will employment state, employers and employees may terminate employment at any time for any legal reason. However, Utah does have one notice requirement upon separation.
Code 477-1-1. The following definitions apply to Title R477 unless otherwise indicated within the text of each rule. (1) "Abandonment of Position" means an act of resignation resulting when an employee is absent from work for three consecutive working days without approval.

To quit, write a simple letter addressed to your supervisor that says nothing more than you are resigning, and which day will be your last. Don't mention your reasons or future plans, no complaints, just your resignation and effective date.
Most U.S. states have at-will employment, which means an employee can resign without notice and for no stated cause. However, there are some exceptions.
