Resigning

Close one chapter carefully. Leave the handover clear.

Before the conversation

1. Be clear about your choice.

   Decide whether you want to leave or discuss staying before speaking with your manager or HR.

2. Check the actual terms.

   Read your offer, employment terms and company policy. Confirm dates, notice and settlement questions directly rather than assuming.

A calm handover

• Finish or clearly hand over pending work.
• Document what the next person needs to know.
• Keep relationships respectful.
• Keep copies of your own payslips and employment documents you are allowed to retain, without taking confidential company material.
