The Letter of Resignation Due to Relocation is a crucial document in New Zealand employment relationships when an employee needs to terminate their employment due to geographical relocation. It serves as an official record of the employee's intention to end their employment and must comply with the notice requirements specified in their employment agreement and the Employment Relations Act 2000. This document type is commonly used when employees need to relocate for personal reasons, family commitments, or new opportunities in different locations. The letter should maintain professionalism while clearly communicating the resignation decision, providing sufficient notice, and offering to assist with the transition. It should include key information such as the last working day, basic context for the relocation, and any proposals for knowledge transfer or handover processes. The document helps ensure a smooth departure process while maintaining good professional relationships and complying with New Zealand employment law requirements.
