A Resignation Letter is a document that you write to give notice to your employer that you plan to leave your job within a certain amount of time. Two weeks is usually the standard amount of notice that would be given to an employer from a permanent employee (an employee that has passed their probation period).
A Resignation Letter is generally used by a permanent employee, since, in most cases, if an employee is within their probation period they generally only need to provide verbal notice that they are leaving. In addition, if the employee is a contractor, they most likely don't need to provide the company with written notice at the end of their contract term unless otherwise stated in their agreement.
You should provide written notice of your resignation from a company or business for a variety of reasons.
For example, a record of your resignation may be required if stated in your original Employment Contract.
Whether it is a requirement or not, written notice should be given to your employer so that there is documentation outlining why you left your job. You should also keep a copy of your resignation notice for your own personal records.
Written notice is often expected by employers as a courtesy to inform them that you are leaving (especially if you want to leave the company on a positive note). Giving notice also ensures the employer has time to find a replacement for you if necessary, or make preparations for after you leave.
You may also need a resignation record for things like employment insurance.
