How to write a letter of resignation in Luxembourg

In the UK a resignation letter is not required by law but it would be best to write one. Before writing a resignation letter review your employment contract to ensure you are not breaching any of the agreements made when you started your job.

When writing the resignation letter, these are some of the things that you need to keep in mind.

  • The first step is to tell your employer about leaving the job and the final work date. Keep it short as the essential part of the letter is the last date of your work.
  • Indicate the reason you are leaving your job. It would be best to be polite as you will leave a positive impression on your employer. Maintain your composure when drafting the letter.
  • Finally, thank your employer for the position and the opportunities you have enjoyed during your work period.
  • Ensure you proofread your letter before sending it to your employer. You can send the letter to your family and friend to check for grammatical errors.
