Subject: Resignation Due to Constructive Dismissal

Dear [Manager/Supervisor Name],

I am writing to formally resign from my position at [Company Name], effective immediately / on [Last Working Day]. This resignation is due to the circumstances that I believe amount to a constructive dismissal, specifically [briefly describe the circumstances, e.g., harassment, unreasonable changes to terms, unsafe working conditions], which have left me with no reasonable alternative but to resign.

Despite my efforts to address these issues through appropriate channels, the situation has not improved, and I believe my employment rights have been breached, forcing me to resign without notice.

Please consider this letter as my formal resignation due to constructive dismissal. I request that my final pay and any owed entitlements be processed promptly.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
