An Employee Termination Letter is a formal notification to an employee that their employment contract has been terminated and the reasons for termination. It outlines the details relating to the end of their employment, such as the date their employment ends, any compensation they are eligible for, and the terms of the severance package, if any. A Termination Letter should be clear and concise, outlining the objective facts and avoiding personal opinions or speculation. The goal should be to explain the termination in a straightforward fashion while maintaining respect and dignity.
