Employee Workplace Leaving Announcement Letter

A letter of the announcement is written about the leaving of an employee when he/she leaves the workplace due to resignation/retirement or transfer to another place. Because such letters are about employees that have been working with the organization earlier, it is important to write them carefully and follow the particular guidelines that should be kept in mind while writing a letter of announcement about the leaving of an employee. It is important that;

• Such a letter includes the mention of notable contributions and services of the employee.
• A letter of the announcement of an employee leaving should never have the mention of unpleasant experience especially if they were the reason for the left of the employee. Remember that good employers not only welcome their employees with a good wish but also goodbye them in a courteous manner.

Dear Team

I am writing this letter to inform you that I am leaving this office and [Date] would be my last working day in this office. I had requested the administration to transfer me to the [city name] branch. My application has been approved and I would be moving on the said date.

The reason for this move is my father’s ill health. He has been diagnosed with lung cancer and as the treatment for cancer is very aggressive, my father needs me by his side during this difficult time. His chemotherapy is starting next week so I need to wrap everything up and move as soon as possible.

Working in this office for the last [number] of years has been an honor and privilege and I am leaving this place with a very heavy heart. I have learned a lot here and have been very lucky to find some great mentors who not only guided me in work-related projects but gave me invaluable lessons in time management and work-life balance. My experience here would always guide and help me in my future projects.

Lastly, I would like to extend my best wishes to all of you for future endeavors. I would also request you to pray for my father’s good health and quick recovery.

Yours sincerely,
