Purpose
Employee termination templates serve as pre-designed documents offering guidance and structure to HR professionals and managers when an employee leaves an organisation, whether through resignation or dismissal.
These templates typically encompass various legally required and recommended components, including the reason for termination, the effective date of termination, and any severance pay or benefits owed to the employee.
It's crucial to acknowledge that the specific components and format of these templates may vary depending on the laws and regulations in your jurisdiction and the terms of the employee's contract.
Seeking legal advice before terminating an employee's contract is always recommended to ensure compliance and mitigate potential risks.
