Letter of Termination Templates | Samples Emails

An organization often experiences tough employees who are either unproductive at work or don’t have proper conduct despite service notices. In such a case, it is essential that the organization terminates those employees from office. However, an essential point to note while terminating an employee is to issue a termination letter.

There can be several reasons for firing an employee. The most common of them are poor performance and disciplinary issues. To issue a termination letter for an employee, the organization would require the basic information about the employee. The letter of termination is also known as the Letter to Fire an Employee or a Pink Slip.

Some of the template samples of termination letter are given below:
