Document background
The Quitting Job For Mental Health Letter is a crucial document for employees in South Africa who need to resign from their position due to mental health concerns. It serves as a formal communication tool that balances professional requirements with personal health needs, while adhering to South African labor legislation, including the Labour Relations Act, Employment Equity Act, and Protection of Personal Information Act. This document becomes necessary when an employee determines that their current role is significantly impacting their mental well-being and needs to terminate their employment in a way that protects their rights, maintains professional relationships, and ensures compliance with legal notice periods. The letter should be crafted to maintain appropriate medical privacy while providing sufficient information for proper employment termination processing.
