Document background
The Termination Of Employment Letter Within Probationary Period is a crucial document used by Australian employers when deciding to end an employment relationship during the initial probationary period. This document is typically used when an employee's performance, conduct, or fit within the organization has been assessed as unsuitable during their probationary period. The letter must comply with Australian employment law, particularly the Fair Work Act 2009 and National Employment Standards, while clearly communicating the termination decision, notice period, final pay arrangements, and any post-employment obligations. It serves as an official record of the employment termination and helps protect both parties by ensuring legal compliance and clear communication of all relevant details. The document is particularly important as it differs from standard termination letters due to the specific legal requirements and protections that apply during probationary periods in Australian employment law.
