Acknowledgement of resignation letter sample

Sometimes, resignation letters are difficult to accept – especially when the employee who submitting the resignation is a valued employee. Behind every resignation is a good reason. So keep in mind to always accept a resignation with a positive attitude. It has to be real and genuine, for he/she will easily feel if you are not being honest. Be compassionate and considerate of their feelings as well. There are several reasons why an employee decides to file for a resignation. Some of the possible reasons are:
  1. Your employee desires for an increase in salary. This may just be an indication that he’s salary does not suffice him anymore.
  2. He is attempting to win a promotion or at least an improvement in his status as an employee.
  3. He could be stressed. It may be stress from work, or may also be from other aspects of the employee’s private life.
  4. He is dealing with some health issues. He thinks that he will not be as productive as he was if he continued his job.
Whatever the reason, receive and accept the resignation graciously. It is advisable to send your letter through post mail. Better yet, give it to the employee personally. But remember that the human resources department should approve your letter first. Below is an example of a letter on how to accept a resignation.

Proposal Letter

Every organization is set up with the intention of sale of either products or services. And each one of them needs to promote their product or service to survive in the market. These are times of “survival of the fittest” and each organization has to prove that it is fitter than the other. All these organizations obviously preach that their products or services are the best as compared to their competitors but they need to prove it to the customer today because ‘Customer is king”. When an organization or individual has made a decision to buy a product or avail of a service they request for a quote from organizations that offer the desired product or service and a Proposal Letter is then sent by these organizations.

Termination of construction contract

Terminate, end, finish, discontinue – all mean the same. There is a negative connotation attached to these words. These words do not give a happy feeling when spoken or read. But if words such as begin, start and continue exist, the existence of these words is inevitable. A Termination Letter is the one that is written to inform that a contract or deal is being done away with or discontinued. Any party, the person who is working or the person who is getting the work done can give it. But this is definitely governed by the terms and conditions that had been mutually agreed upon at the time of signing the contract or deal. A Termination Letter is a very important legal document so it needs to be very tactfully and carefully worded. It should be short and precise.

How to Write retirement letter tips

“All good things come to an end” and so must an individual’s work tenure. A Retirement Letter is the one that an individual writes when s/he is retiring from work. The retirement age however differs from country to country and profession to profession. Say for example, the retirement age of government officials is earlier than the ones working in the private sector. In earlier days retirement actually meant that the individual will sit at home and do nothing or might just do some voluntary work. But times have changed. These days people do have some job offers after retirement also that are remunerative for the concerned individual. A Retirement Letter is the last parting letter written by an individual to either her/his superior in the organization or to the organization itself. It normally used to be written with a heavy heart but not any longer. A Retirement Letter should be written to indicate that the individual is going to miss working in that particular organization.
