Retirement Resignation Letter Example

If you are going to retire soon you must let your current employer know about your situation.

Your letter should be nice and in a proper way.

Remember they give a job for years and years and you want to say good bye in a kind way!

Write your letter as soon as you know about your day of retirement so your employer can find somebody else for your position.

Have a good retirement!

  1. Very good examples there.  Something I hadnt thought of (not that i’m due to retire any time soon lol).  Obviously the employer will know that your retirement age is approaching anyway, but i guess the exact date is down to the person directly?
