Document background
An End of Service Letter is a crucial document used when employment relationship comes to an end, whether through resignation, retirement, or termination. Under English and Welsh law, this document serves multiple purposes: it formally acknowledges the end of employment, details final payments and benefits, outlines the handling of company property, and reminds the employee of any ongoing obligations. The letter helps protect both employer and employee interests by clearly documenting the terms of separation and ensuring compliance with UK employment legislation, including the Employment Rights Act 1996 and related regulations.
