It is a common misconception that an employee's notice of resignation is not valid unless it has been "accepted" by the employer. The position at common law is that a notice, once validly given, is effective and can neither be "refused" by the employer or "withdrawn" by the employee, without the other's agreement.
You do not have to respond formally when someone tells you they're resigning. But it's good practice to respond in writing. Your response should include: that you've received the employee's resignation.
