When it becomes too hard for workers to continue on with a job, there is a time.You may be thinking about different ways to leave your job after you've encountered the final straw.One method of leaving is by phone.There's nothing wrong with this method of self-termination, but not everyone is a pro at handling it the right way.It is possible to resign by phone in a way that will be effective.
Step 1: Determine your financial security.
Losing the income from your current job won't be an issue if you have another job lined up.If you don't have other employment lined up, you will have to find a way to cover your living expenses.How will you make ends meet without your current income?It might be best to stick it out for a while.If you will need to rely on a new job's income, make sure that you know the details of the job.A defined start date is included with a signed contract or offer letter.Unpaid wages, unreimbursed expenses, and balances in company benefits plans are things your employee might owe you.Figure out how much you want to spend in your financial planning.
Step 2: Determine if you need health coverage.
Many individuals and families are affected by the problem of post-job health insurance coverage.Many people depend on their employers to help pay for health care.The problem is specific to countries without a public health system, where a broader distribution of healthcare gives individuals more freedom to choose their work opportunities.If you are moving to a position with fewer health benefits, you should get the procedures done while you're still on your current employer's insurance.
Step 3: Take a look at your contract.
There probably aren't any issues in your contract.If any of the fine print issues included in this agreement will affect your decision, you should read over it before you resign.Future employment prospects can be affected by contract clauses or non-compete agreements.
Step 4: Think about what you're going to do next.
When you quit your job, where will you go?Are you taking time away from work to find a new job?When you resign, you should have an offer in place for a new position.You will need to think about your options for finding a job if you don't.You'll likely need to find a new job if you don't know your current employer's policy on references.
Step 5: If you want to resign in person, consider it.
Resigning in person is the best way to quit a job.It is not feasible in some cases.If your boss works far away, is away from the office for a long period of time, or has never met with you in person, a phone call is a perfectly acceptable method of resigning.You should always resign by phone.If time is not an issue, you can notify your employer by phone instead of in person.
Step 6: It's time to calm down.
There's no need for you to make a big deal of your feelings at the head office.Pull yourself together and make an effort to do this respectfully when you decide to resign over the phone.If you do this, you will have a better chance of finding a solution to your problems.Even if you are leaving for bad reasons, try to frame your decision in a positive light.Try to pay attention to the opportunity afforded by your new position.Take a couple of deep breaths.If that doesn't work, try to convince yourself that you're making the right decision by looking into a mirror.
Step 7: Direct channels of communication can be found.
You will want to reach someone with authority when you pick up the phone.You can try to get in touch with your supervisor or manager.If your manager can't be reached, try reaching out to their supervisor.If your resignation will be handled by HR, you should let your manager know first.They will have enough time to prepare for your absence.
Step 8: You have two weeks to give notice.
Most of the working world gives two weeks notice for resignation.This will vary by position and employer.Some positions may require you to stop working immediately after you resign.This protects sensitive information.Follow the two week rule if there is no guidance as to resignation timing.The date of your final day is important.
Step 9: You need to be absolutely clear that you are quitting.
You should clearly state your intentions when talking to your boss."I offer my resignation effective your last day" is a standard phrase.If it helps, say something like, "I appreciate the experience I have had here" or "This was a difficult decision for me."Unless you are starting your new job immediately after, allow your boss to negotiate with you about your departure date.
Step 10: You should tell a story that explains why you are leaving.
Speak kindly of your time in the position you are leaving.You will reap benefits down the road if you don't burn bridges.Discuss how you have developed as a professional during your time there.Give your manager a reason as to why you are leaving, whether it's due to disagreements with the employer or if you're leaving to take a better position.As possible, be polite and objective.Limit the details that you give about your new position or future plans.If you want, you can tell your manager about it at a later date."I need to move on with my career and have found a promising next step" is a good example of an explanation as to why you are quitting.Positive aspects of a new job are a better fit to where I want to be.I am happy here, but the other employer made me an even better offer.It's an offer I can't refuse.
Step 11: Provide a resignation letter.
You may have to give a resignation letter as well as your resignation by phone.You do not need to write anything complex.If you want to, you can write a detailed resignation letter, but most employers don't require one at all.The only thing you will need to provide is a statement that says you are leaving and an effective date.You don't have to include a reason for leaving.Make sure you follow company requirements for resignation.
Step 12: Remove company-owned electronic devices.
If you have personal files on your computer or phone, transfer them to it.When you announce your resignation, the company will take these from you and wipe them clean.It's a good idea to get personal files off of them or back them up online.Don't copy any files that contain proprietary company information.This could lead to criminal penalties.
Step 13: How to deal with transferrable benefits.
If you want to move your 401(k) or 403(b) over to a new employer, you need to work with HR.You will need to figure out how to transfer retirement funds on both sides before you switch.You don't want to lose your retirement fund, so make sure you take special care.Life and health insurance, purchase of a company car or other assets, and payment for unused vacation time are some of the benefits issues to be settled.Work with HR to make sure that you are compensated for the benefits you received at your previous employer.
Step 14: It's a good idea to have a time to move personal possessions out of your office.
It's a good time to clean out your office.If you are asked to leave immediately, you may not have time to do it.You will probably have time to return to your office several times to get rid of your possessions.It is important to leave your workspace clean for the next person to work in it.
Step 15: You should be prepared to help train your replacement.
If another employee is trained to fill your role when you leave, you should be prepared to help them.Giving advice, training them, or transferring over relevant documents is what this may include.Your successor can easily pick up where you left off if you leave any in-process projects well-organized.
Step 16: Continue to work hard on your last day.
Continue to fulfill your objectives as normal, or even work harder, up until the last minute of your last day at your current job.This shows that you are dedicated to your job.Who knows when you might need a reference?If you ever need a glowing reference, show your current employer that you are a hard worker.
Step 17: You should go through your exit interview.
Pay attention to the information presented to you during your exit interview.In many instances, the employee in charge of your exit information will give you specific information on the company's rules regarding information you can give potential employers about your work.There are confidentiality agreements on referral letters, recommendations, and other interactions with potential employers.
