Is it ok to email my letter of resignation to my unit director?

Published

I don't want to be tacky but my unit director works days and I work nights and I have been unable to see her in person for the past couple of days. I don't want to drag this out any further. Can I at least email her a heads up that I will be resigning and leave copy of my typed letter of resignation in her mailbox?

Also I mentioned over a month ago to my unit director that I will be moving away soon so she already has some idea.

Also if emailing my letter of resignation should I also cc: HR and my supervisor?

Appreciate the help/opinions.

In 17+ years, oddly , I've never had a formal offer letter...

I only once received one without asking for it, and that was my current job. My last permanent position (did traveling for awhile), I had to ask HR for it multiple times. I actually like to have one for my own record keeping. It's also handy if you're relocating. It will usually state your starting salary and you can use it for proof of income when you're applying for housing.

Resignation letters are formal and should be printed and signed. When you received your letter of employment did you receive an email or a printed signed letter?

I just got a job offer as an email to print out and sign.
