Document background
The Farewell Letter To Coworker is a common workplace document used when a colleague is leaving the organization, whether for a new opportunity, retirement, or other reasons. Under Dutch business practices, such communications often serve as both a personal goodbye and an official record of professional appreciation. While maintaining the informal nature typical of Dutch workplace culture, the letter should still adhere to relevant privacy laws (GDPR/AVG) and professional standards. The document typically includes expressions of gratitude, shared memories, and future well-wishes, while avoiding any confidential or sensitive information. It can be used individually or as part of a collective goodbye, and may be shared through official company channels or presented personally to the departing colleague.
