Document background
A Voluntary Retirement Letter is a crucial document used when an employee decides to retire from their position of their own accord. This document is particularly important in Singapore's context, where retirement is governed by specific legislation including the Retirement and Re-employment Act. The letter serves multiple purposes: it formally notifies the employer, establishes the retirement date, confirms the voluntary nature of the decision, and may address various aspects such as benefits, handover arrangements, and CPF considerations. It's essential for proper documentation and ensuring compliance with Singapore's employment laws.
