This letter is appropriate when a company has failed to keep its equipment up to date, creating an unsafe or inefficient workplace that has led the employee to resign.
After this week’s near-disaster, I no longer feel safe working at ABC Company and must resign. I am exploring my options for further action, and you can expect a separate letter regarding that.
A company like ABC should put the safety of its workers first. What happened this week never should have happened, and steps must be immediately taken to make sure it never happens again.
As you know, I have been advocating for equipment upgrades for years due to these very concerns. Unfortunately, profits seem to trump not only safety but also efficiency and the opportunity for company growth.
I truly hope that changes are made before someone gets seriously hurt.
