The number of economic associations in Russia is increasing every day. The concept of corporate ethics, the purpose of which is to create a favorable atmosphere in the team, is becoming familiar to us.
Psychologically difficult moments(reorganization, change of management, hiring and departure of employees) are accompanied by certain rituals, one of which is writing a farewell letter to colleagues upon dismissal.
Why a farewell letter?
Large corporations and offices have hundreds and even thousands of employees. It is not possible to approach everyone for a personal farewell. Gather the team in the meeting room, too, if the person leaving is not the head of the enterprise.
It is also worth remembering that being fired is stressful and not conducive to personal communication. And if you consider that in a large team, not all employees are closely acquainted, you can also find yourself in an awkward situation.
The best way to avoid trouble is internal mailing Email.
Psychologists give another reason for writing a farewell letter to colleagues. When a person understands that he should quit, but cannot make up his mind, the process of composing farewell lines will help him objectively answer the questions: why does he want to leave, how does he work in his previous place, what has he achieved, what is he striving for, what are his relationships with colleagues? and superiors. Along with the last point, a reasonable, balanced decision will come.
When is it customary to write corporate farewell letters?
- when moving to another place of work;
- when transferred to another branch or department;
- when changing position and level in the corporate hierarchy;
- upon retirement;
- when going on maternity leave.
Goals
The main objective - compliance with the rules of good manners. Nursing in English is incompatible with corporate behavior. The person resigning with the help of a letter shows respect for colleagues and the company and helps to ensure that his departure does not in any way affect the atmosphere in the team.
The second goal is personal and slightly selfish. This desire to maintain reputation in professional circles and business connections . People rarely leave bankers to become musicians. Usually he receives a lucrative offer from competing organizations. AND business relationship with former colleagues can greatly help in career growth in a new place.
How to write a farewell letter upon dismissal
The formality of the writing style is manifested in objectivity and unobtrusiveness. But it is advisable to abandon the dryness of presentation, making the message warmer and more friendly.
This way it will be perceived as an act of respect from a caring person, and not a burdensome obligation. Correct, delicate humor is allowed in a farewell letter.
Such a letter is not a document, but has a clear and binding structure.
Name, position
To save your colleagues time, avoid misunderstandings and sending the letter to spam, you first need to introduce yourself and remind your colleagues who the sender worked for and in what department. In the subject line of the email, you should also indicate “Farewell letter, full name, position in the genitive case.”
Notice of resignation and reason
There is no need for strong emotions in a corporate letter. It should leave the impression of the writer as a balanced person who can accept both failures and victories with dignity. The reason is formulated clearly and clearly, without hints that give rise to rumors and gossip.
When the reason for dismissal is unpleasant, you don’t have to indicate it.
If a person nevertheless decides to do this, he needs to suppress his resentment, anger and the desire to express everything that hurts about his former colleagues and place of work.
A pleasant reason is also discreetly indicated. In a farewell letter to colleagues there is no place for boasting, gloating, or expressions of superiority.
If desired, they explain what influenced the decision to quit, but remember that negative statements are inadmissible. When it is impossible to do without criticism, it is presented as a series of proposals for improving the work of the enterprise, indicating specific facts. This once again emphasizes competence and integrity.
Successor's name, contact details
The well-functioning mechanism of the corporation must work without failures or delays. If the departing employee informs his colleagues about the changes in a timely manner, they will be grateful.
Description of the employee's achievements during his employment
The starting point for describing achievements is the team. Professional successes should not be presented as personal victories.
You should start with what the writer learned while working at the enterprise. It is advisable to indicate the names of those who contributed to his development as a professional and express special gratitude to them.
At the end of this part of the letter, it is imperative to show that the professional improvement of the quitter is the result of the work of the team, which supported his endeavors, helped, showed patience and mutual understanding.
After expressing gratitude, it would be appropriate to apologize to the team if the person leaving feels discomfort after the offense committed.
Wishes to colleagues
This part is designed differently depending on the size of the team and the nature of employee relationships. Wishes can be specific if the small team has friendly relations.
If the team is large and unfamiliar, a few general points are enough. We wish you success in your work, career growth, creative success, professional discoveries, decent salaries, personal and family well-being.
At the end, they express a desire to maintain business and friendly relations in the future.
New contacts
So that the previous phrase is not an empty formality, former colleagues need to leave their contacts. It could be personal email address, cell phone number or home phone, residence address.
If data from a new place of work is provided (address, telephone), the position must be indicated to make it easier to find a new employee.
Should I send a goodbye letter to my boss?
It is necessary to write a farewell letter to your boss.
- This is again a manifestation of tact and good manners.
- This is an opportunity to leave with dignity and leave your mark good impression, especially if your field of activity accepts letters of recommendation and calls to the previous place of work.
- This is a good opportunity to highlight your professionalism. If the resigning employee did not have free access to the boss’s office, he can unobtrusively express his accumulated ideas and suggestions in a letter, which will also have a beneficial effect on future recommendations.
- This is the last chance to resolve a conflict or correct a mistake. By speaking frankly with your boss and describing your vision of the current situation, you can even avoid dismissal or demotion.
How and what to write to your boss? Unobtrusively, respectfully, respecting the chain of command, without unnecessary emotions and flattery, express gratitude for support, assistance in self-realization, and advanced training.
Emphasize that the experience gained is the result of the high professionalism of the management. If the dismissal is related to promotion, the role of governing bodies in achieving this should be emphasized.
Examples of farewell letters to colleagues upon dismissal
There are no strict standards in the form of farewell letters. They can be in prose and verse, humorous and serious, official and friendly.
The only limitation is volume. If the letter is addressed to a large number of employees, you should not distract them from work with hundreds of farewell lines. Long letter permissible only in a narrow circle of colleagues who will definitely read it to the end.

With leaving work
You'll sleep longer!
Regardless of the challenges you're facing in your workplace, when you decide to quit, it can be difficult to say goodbye to your co-workers. Try to make the most of it by making your breakup cordial and inclusive. You may need to contact some of your former colleagues in the future, so say goodbye to them with tact and grace. Whether you say goodbye in person or via email, it shouldn't be stressful for you.
Steps
Personal farewell
- In most cases, you must submit your notice of resignation 2 weeks in advance (unless a different deadline is specified in your contract).
- After submitting your application, you can inform your colleagues about your resignation. Announce this when appropriate, but be sure to announce it in advance and not on your last day of work.
-
Say goodbye the day before last day work. Say goodbye on the second to last day to give your colleagues some time to process the fact that you are leaving. Time before your departure day will also give you a chance to finish all your projects without a stream of colleagues wanting to say goodbye to you.
- After you've announced that you're leaving, chances are your coworkers will stop by from time to time to say goodbye. Because of this, saying goodbye can be made easier if you have completed all your tasks.
-
Meet with people one on one. Pack your belongings early so you have time to say goodbye to your co-workers individually. This may make you feel like the end of your work together because it will be in last time when you meet as colleagues.
Keep it brief. Say goodbye to your colleagues like a professional. There is no need to make a long speech. Tell your colleagues that you enjoyed working with them, that you wish them well, and that you will be in touch with them.
- If your colleague is leaving, do not take too much time from him to say goodbye, as other colleagues may also come to say goodbye to him. Even if you are upset that this particular employee is leaving, keep your emotions to yourself.
- Just tell him: “Mark! It was a pleasure working with you. You good man. Let me know how you are doing, okay?”
-
Maintain a positive attitude. If you've been suspended or fired, you may find it difficult not to lose your cool while saying goodbye to your co-workers. However, you should try to remain calm in order to present yourself in the most professional light. Even if you are upset, remain calm and brief.
Invite your close colleagues to a farewell meeting after work. Most likely, among your colleagues you have friends, enemies and people to whom you are indifferent, so you should not invite everyone.
- Invite only your closest colleagues who have become your friends to your farewell meeting after work. This meeting will allow you to talk more openly with them and establish stronger connections for the future.
Sending a goodbye email
-
Make your corporate letter comprehensive. If you're saying goodbye to colleagues in a department or company and you can't say goodbye to each of them, kindly thank them. You should include people you don't know personally, as this is the right thing to do from a corporate ethics standpoint. The letter might include something like:
- Dear Colleagues! As you may have heard, I will be leaving my position at (insert your position) tomorrow. I want to say that it was a pleasure working with all of you. I'd like to stay in touch; you can reach me at (your email) or (your LinkedIn profile). Thank you for the time we worked together. Best regards, (your name).
-
Keep a positive tone. You could write about the difficulties associated with your job (especially if you were fired). However, it is better to maintain a positive tone in order to present yourself in better light. Having a positive attitude will make it more likely that you will communicate with colleagues in the future.
- It's always a good idea to end on a positive note, so try to speak positively about the company (as much as possible). This is especially important if you are sending a letter to your manager.
-
Write a short and to the point letter. There is no need to reveal the real reason for your leaving. If your colleagues have questions, ask them to contact you directly. In the letter, simply indicate that you are moving forward and have decided to try yourself in a different position.
-
Please provide your contact details. Your farewell letter should end with your contact information. Please indicate your number clearly mobile phone, email address and Linkedin account address. However, do not share your personal contact information if you are not comfortable doing so.
- You can also select several colleagues with whom you will share your personal contact information.
-
Read the letter before sending to make sure there are no errors, that it is grammatically correct, and that the tone of the letter is friendly and positive.
- Make sure you include everything you wanted in your email.
- You can read your email out loud to identify unpleasant (or awkward, or ugly) parts.
-
Talk personally with colleagues close to you. It's generally rude to tell your friends you're leaving via email. Try to say goodbye to them in person or at least over the phone.
- If you can't meet close colleagues in person, send them personalized letters. Provide them with personal contact information so you can stay in touch outside of the office.
- A personal email might include something like: “Dear (coworker's name), As you may have heard, I'm leaving this company tomorrow. It was a pleasure working with you and I will miss your positive energy. I'd like to stay in touch and I hope we can meet outside of the office. You can contact me by my phone (number) or by (your email). Thank you for the time we worked together. Sincerely, (your name)."
How to avoid common mistakes
-
Don't make false promises. If you have no intention or desire to stay in touch with a certain colleague, do not make false promises about future meetings. You will be considered insincere and deceitful. Be upfront and honest - if you don't want to communicate with someone after you leave, don't do it or promise it (remember, no one is forcing you to do it!).
- If you think your intentions to connect with some colleagues will offend others, keep your plans to yourself. It is not necessary to spread the word on every corner that you will communicate with certain employees even after you leave.
Give notice of your departure in advance. This should not be done on your last day at work, as many may find it rude or indecent. Try to make sure that all your colleagues know about your departure before you no longer appear in the office.
A new stage has come in your life and you have decided to leave current work? You will have to resolve not only “technical” issues such as writing an application and transferring cases, but also organizational ones. In particular, you need say goodbye to colleagues so as to leave a favorable impression and good memories.
Of course, when we're talking about being fired with a scandal, saying goodbye to colleagues is somehow the last thing on your mind. If you are leaving “on good terms,” then why not carry out some kind of farewell ritual, especially since you had to spend 8 hours every working day with these people, willy-nilly.
The number of employees in different companies can range from just a couple of people to many thousands. And even though all these people can nominally be considered your colleagues, you have every right to say goodbye only to those with whom you actually kept in touch. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the nuances of relationships in your team.
So, if you communicate with your colleagues informally, you can say goodbye to each of them personally, or you can arrange a kind of farewell party to which you invite all your colleagues. If communication with colleagues is only of a formal business nature, then it is quite enough to write a special letter in parting, in which you notify everyone that you are leaving and express a few wishes for the future.
Saying goodbye to colleagues with whom you have become friends and, as they say, eat a lot of salt together, can be the most difficult thing. You may really be sorry to part with these people, and therefore you should prepare for farewell especially carefully.
First of all, tell your colleagues that you are going to leave. Do this in advance, for example, immediately after you write your resignation letter and “resolve all issues” with your boss. If you decide to throw a farewell party, also warn your colleagues early, giving them the opportunity to prepare for the event.
A farewell party with close colleagues can take place in different ways. For example, you can arrange modest “get-togethers” during the lunch break, inviting colleagues for tea and cake, or you can hold a wild “party” with a sea of snacks and rivers of alcohol, albeit after hours. It all depends on your desire, capabilities and established traditions in the team.
In any case, when you gather your colleagues for a party, do not forget about a few main points. First, be sure to thank your colleagues for the time spent together and tell them what you were able to achieve thanks to your cooperation with them. Secondly, share how you see your future career. Don't worry, no details are required, all you have to do is indicate whether you are switching to new job or want to “search for yourself” in a completely new profession.
Finally, thirdly, express your wishes to your colleagues for the future. If possible, let these not be standard wishes for happiness, health and success in your personal life, but something individual for each colleague. After all, if you communicate closely, you probably know about the hobbies of your colleagues and their career aspirations, which means you can choose a personal wish. Still doesn't work? Ready-made wishes in prose, which can be used as templates, will help out.

I want to say a big and sincere “thank you” to my dear and wonderful colleagues. Dear ones, you have always been my support and support, you have become true friends and faithful comrades for me.

Colleagues, we spent a lot of time together, and our relationship became almost family. And although changing jobs is so natural, for some reason a bitter feeling of loss appeared in my soul.
Of course, we will continue to communicate, but everything will be different. Thank you for the cozy and cheerful atmosphere that brightened up your everyday life, helped you cope with problems and blues, and inspired you to work and grow!

View full version: Help write an INFORMATION letter about the dismissal of an employee
Who knows how to format an information letter about the dismissal of an employee, which will then need to be sent out to the people with whom we work?
(The manager was fired, we need to notify our suppliers and customers that this person no longer works in our organization)
What should the text be?
People, help... I can't find anything on the Internet...
Why inform customers and suppliers?
Because this comrade is such that he can do a dirty trick - therefore, we need to inform our partners that this person has been fired, and not maintain any contacts with him on behalf of our company.

Dear Sirs, We inform you that in connection with the dismissal of Ivanov I.I. from September 1, 2007, his duties at Horns and Hooves LLC are performed by P.P. Petrov.
Or do you need to emphasize that he was fired in a scandal?
Of course not!
Actually, the personnel officer should be doing this, but she’s on vacation now, so I have to do it... And I can’t even figure out what test to write... But thanks for the sensible idea)))) We’ll implement it)))
Well, I would write something like this:
We would like to inform you that due to the dismissal of manager Ivanov Petr Ivanovich, manager Petrov Ivan Sidorovich will work with your company.
For any questions, please call I.S. Petrov by phone at 555-55-55.
Sincerely
………
You can specify anyone working in your company. Who at least knows who you can switch to for any questions.
If you want to emphasize that the dismissed colleague does not represent the interests of your company, then you can write in the following context:
Dear sirs, we inform you that Ivanov I.I. is not an employee of the company "Horns and Hooves" from such and such a date and is not authorized to represent the interests of this company. For any questions, please contact Petrov P.P.
We suspect here that this comrade had access to seals, respectively. I stamped myself with an authorization to receive the goods..... And since we work on a non-cash basis and with deferments, we need to warn suppliers, at least not to deal with this person. Otherwise it will be terrible, terrible if he decides to “take revenge” on us for turning him down (for the cause, by the way)

Dear Colleagues!
Twice five years have passed. Today I signed that I am familiar with the Order of the FANO on the termination of my powers as Director of the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences on December 21.
There are public actions that accompany the director's assumption of office. But there are no similar procedures when leaving the position of director. With this letter, I, of course, do not seek to compensate for their absence, but I still want to highlight this important moment in my life and turn to you, all together and to each individual, to say the following.
Firstly, I would like to thank everyone, not only the members of the Academic Council, the directorate, the administration, the heads of scientific departments, namely everyone, the entire team, for their joint work. All the achievements that we have, both in science and in overcoming organizational and other practical difficulties, are the result of our friendly work and joint actions. Without internal cohesion based on love and dedication to our work, we would not achieve anything. We publish more than a hundred books and thousands of articles every year.
I understand that a book is not equal to a book and an article is not equal to an article. We have more than 250 scientific employees and one scientific employee is not equal to another even within his category. Our Institute has outstanding specialists and thinkers, whose names will remain in history; they make up its face, its decoration. But the Institute is not only them, it is also, and even primarily, the environment where they appear, where they are noticed and appreciated; The institute's collective is an integral living organism with its own mind and instincts, everything in it is in its place, including what at first glance seems superfluous and unnecessary. It's like in big family, someone is successful, someone turns out to be unlucky, someone is cheerful, someone is gloomy, etc., but all of them, nevertheless, are members of the same family, welded together by a common origin and related feelings. The awareness of the uniqueness and even, if you like, the uniqueness of the Institute as a historically established intellectual environment of Russian philosophy is especially important right now, on the eve of a new stage of ongoing institutional reforms of science.
Secondly, I apologize to everyone for possible mistakes, inattention, involuntary offenses that I allowed. Many people, including my fellow directors, reproached me for being soft-hearted, for making poor use of administrative resources, for not exercising power even where it is necessary. Perhaps they are right. But still, the director cannot help but make decisions and, when making them, cannot help but be selective. I can’t say that I was impeccable in my decisions; for example, I was not always accurate in personnel matters. Even where there were no mistakes, the very selectivity of decisions can be associated with grievances. For example, the director makes a proposal to award annually a medal “For Contribution to the Development of Philosophy”; Since in one year you can only nominate two or three people, even when you nominate worthy people each time, you still feel awkward in front of other colleagues who are also worthy.
Thirdly, I consider it necessary to say: I am proud of the staff of the Institute, I consider it a great success, even a kind of happiness in my life, that I had to lead it for ten years. Of particular note is the wisdom and strength of our team, which was revealed in the last two major events his life - moving from Volkhonka to Goncharnaya and the election of a new director of the Institute. Although we were forced to leave our native Volkhonka, nevertheless, we were able to do this without humiliating our professional and civil dignity and enter Goncharnaya with our heads held high. The team also showed a great sense of responsibility and maturity in the election of a new director, which was reflected in many ways: in the nomination of candidates, in great activity in discussing their programs, in good turnout on voting day, in the impeccable organization of elections, in fair competition, in respectful attitude towards to all candidates and, most importantly, in the ability to make an informed choice in the most difficult conditions - conditions of free expression of will.
With this letter I say goodbye to the team as director, but I remain in it in the capacity and place that will, I hope, be assigned to me in the near future.
Long live the Institute of Philosophy Russian Academy sciences!
Yours A.A.Guseinov.

Basic moments
A farewell letter is a corporate rule of good manners. It is most often used in large companies with a large number of employees.
Any society, both large and small, has its own set of rules of behavior and traditions. Similar customs include the ritual of saying goodbye to former colleagues upon dismissal or change of job.

- leave the coordinates and contact information of the successor to simplify communications within the team;
- leave your own contact details in case former colleagues need to contact the dismissed employee;
- thank management for the opportunity to work in the organization and for the experience gained.
Nowadays, large companies are increasingly checking new employees not only previous experience work, but also reputation.
And in this situation, former colleagues and management become a source of recommendations.

Response to request
Writing a farewell letter is not that difficult, but it is also important to present it correctly to the team. The way in which employees are presented with a farewell letter depends mainly on the size of the organization.
The main goal is to convey the content of the letter to more workers. In a medium-sized company, a farewell letter is not as necessary.
Rather, it represents a sign of remembrance for employees. But still, you shouldn’t neglect them. You can read it on general meeting employees.
For a small team, it is possible to do without a letter, saying goodbye to each employee personally. But best option– write an individual letter for each colleague.
You should not expect any response to the letter. The main thing is that it fulfills its main functions - transmit important information and notify about contacts for communication if further communication is necessary.
Sometimes doubts arise about writing a farewell letter in the event of dismissal against the employee’s initiative.
