Document background
A Suspension Letter To Employee For Poor Performance is a crucial document in Hong Kong's employment context, used when an employer needs to temporarily remove an employee from their duties due to significant performance issues. This step is typically taken after other performance improvement measures have been unsuccessful and before considering termination. The letter must comply with Hong Kong employment law, particularly the Employment Ordinance (Cap. 57), and should detail specific performance issues, previous warnings, suspension terms, and next steps. It serves as both a formal notification and a legal record of the disciplinary action, protecting the employer's interests while ensuring fair treatment of the employee. The document should be carefully drafted to avoid potential discrimination claims and maintain procedural fairness in accordance with Hong Kong employment regulations.
