Two Weeks' Notice Letter in New Jersey

A short, professional resignation letter giving two weeks' notice. Most jobs are at-will, so notice is a courtesy unless a contract requires it — but your state sets when your final paycheck is due (below).

What New Jersey law says

Final paycheck if you quitFinal wages may be paid on the next regular payday for the pay period.
Unused vacation / PTO payoutNot required by state law. If an employer offers vacation or other paid time off, it must follow its own established policy or agreement, and an employee may have a claim if it does not.
