Document background
The "We Regret To Inform You Job Application" letter is a crucial document in the Indian corporate recruitment process, used when an organization needs to formally communicate a negative hiring decision to job applicants. This document must comply with Indian constitutional provisions, particularly Articles 14 and 16, which ensure equality and non-discrimination in employment practices. The letter serves multiple purposes: it provides closure to candidates, maintains professional relationships, protects the organization from potential legal issues, and ensures compliance with data protection requirements. It's typically used after completing the evaluation of job applications or following interviews, when a decision has been made not to proceed with a candidate's application. The document should be drafted carefully to maintain professionalism while avoiding any statements that could be construed as discriminatory or that might expose the organization to legal liability under Indian employment law.
