You’ve decided that it’s time to quit your job. Maybe you’ve accepted a better position elsewhere, or perhaps you’re leaving to escape a toxic work environment.Either way, deciding whether or not to resign can be difficult.Once you are sure, the following tips will help ensure you leave on good terms.
Giving two weeks’ notice is typical, but you may decide to give more notice if, for example, you are in the middle of a big project or want to finish the season or term. On the other hand, you might provide less than two weeks’ notice if you need to leave sooner.
3. Decide whether or not you’ll include the reason you are resigning.
You do not have to explain why you are resigning, but should you? If you are unsure, it is always best to err on the side of caution and leave this information out.
Even if you are not happy with your current situation, remember to be grateful for your opportunities. Thank your employer for their time, and wish them continued success in the future. Saying thank you is a courteous way to end your letter.
