Why this letter is necessary

A resignation letter is a written notice that an employee submits to their employer to inform them of their intention to leave their job or position.

It typically includes the date on which the resignation is effective and may provide a brief explanation for why the employee is leaving.

A resignation letter is an important part of the resignation process, as it serves as formal documentation of the employee's decision to leave the company.
