Bullying at work - what to put in resignation letter
Discussion
Stress and depression are real conditions. Crap work places can and do cause these issues.
If your wife is coming home wanting to quit and upset and has had mood changes then those are already signs that the work place is causing harm. Therefore she needs to be away from that cause of harm.
Quitting and sueing for constructive dismissal for a payout and retribution is just as whiplash claim as using the sickness route.
Life is too short to put up with aholes. She should just leave. Management have clearly decided the bully's needs are more important.
Resignation letter doesn't even need to have a reason. She can just put 'this is my X days notice of resignation, my last day will be Y' and leave it at that.

Like Tonker said, it's now about the money. Lawyer up and start negotiating the pay off and reference.

Resigning is perfectly fine, staying on demonstrates that the situation has not reached the intolerable. In these circumstances it does not weaken the case.

Look at it this way though, if your wife is upset to the point of wanting to resign this is clearly causing her a lot of stress. Absolutely nothing wrong with taking some time out.
Being bullied and harassed at work is a major cause of stress related absences IMHO (and in my professional experience)... You spend a great deal of your life at work, if people are as***les and mean to you, it can make life hell.
