Document background
The Transfer Letter From Employer is a critical document in Irish employment practice, used when an employee is being transferred to a different position, department, or legal entity. It is essential for ensuring compliance with Irish employment law, particularly the European Communities (Protection of Employees on Transfer of Undertakings) Regulations 2003 and related employment legislation. This document is typically used during corporate restructuring, internal reorganizations, or when part of a business is being transferred to another entity. The letter must carefully detail the transfer arrangements while ensuring the protection of employee rights and continuity of employment terms. It includes crucial information such as the effective date of transfer, any changes to terms and conditions (if applicable), new reporting relationships, and confirmation of preserved rights and benefits. The document serves both as a formal notification and a legal record of the transfer terms, protecting both employer and employee interests.
