Document background
A Cover Letter For Resignation is an essential workplace document used across all industries in Australia. It serves as a formal written notification of an employee's intention to end their employment relationship with their employer. The document must align with Australian employment law, particularly the Fair Work Act 2009 and National Employment Standards, which specify minimum notice periods and other requirements. A resignation cover letter typically includes the employee's details, their intention to resign, last working day, and may also cover transition arrangements and expressions of gratitude. It's crucial for maintaining professional relationships and ensuring proper documentation of the employment termination process. The letter should be professional, clear, and concise while adhering to all relevant Australian workplace regulations and standards.
