- Resigning from a job to enter retirement is often perceived as a moment to look forward to in life. That is until it comes to the actual day to submit the paperwork and officially resign. The fact is that it can be nerve-wracking and even sad. The old saying, the grass is not always greener can really shake your confidence when it comes to this major life event. But if you're ready to resign from a job and enter retirement and are confident that it will be the correct decision, it's important to craft the right letter of resignation. You owe it to yourself and your reputation. Hi there, I'm Mark Fonville, a certified financial planner and CEO here at Covenant Wealth Advisors. In this video I will discuss how to write a retirement letter of resignation. So you want to retire, congratulations. On your checklist of things to do before retiring writing a retirement letter of resignation should be on there. While your company may not ask this of you it's just the right thing to do. You owe it to yourself and your colleagues to make things official. This letter will also act as a formal signal to your employer about what to do with any outstanding pay, bonuses, insurance and benefits you are entitled to. But what would you put in the letter? Let's take a look at that. The foremost detail to include in it is the date, of course. Timing your retirement is vital to not only your future but the company's future too. Be strategic about this and provide adequate time for the company to look for your replacement. They may, after all, want you to train your replacement or at least make their transition a smooth one. Do your best to focus on the positives in your letter. This is likely a happy time you are approaching in your life and it is best to avoid the letter becoming an airing of grievances. You should be assertive and firm about your timeframe but being respectful is important. Proofread your letter thoroughly or have a spouse or close friend look at it over before you submit it. This letter is likely to be the last thing people in your company will read from you so you want to make a good final impression. Now, give yourself ample time to craft your retirement letter of resignation. It's never a good idea to come to a monumental life decision on a whim nor would it be to finalize this decision too hastily. Be patient and revisit the letter over days or weeks even to ensure all the information goes in there and the tone remains professionally positive. If you take these few tips into consideration your letter will be well received and you can enter the next stage of your life on a positive note.
