THE RIGHT TEMPLATE
Where it fits
Use it when you are the employee leaving a job. Use the experience and relieving letter when an employer confirms the service of someone who has left, and the warning letter for a conduct issue.
A CAREFUL CHECK
Before you rely on it
Original Centilio wording, not legal advice. Check the notice that the employment contract, company policy or local law asks for, and make sure the last working day allows for it. No reason for leaving is needed, and the employer's signature confirms receipt only, not agreement to the date.
