Document background
The Job Confirmation Letter is a crucial document in Nigerian employment practice, typically issued either after successful completion of a probationary period or to formalize a verbal employment offer. It serves as an official record of the employment relationship and must comply with Nigerian Labour Law requirements, particularly the Labour Act. The document includes essential information such as job title, salary, benefits, working hours, and other key terms of employment. While less detailed than a full employment contract, the Job Confirmation Letter holds significant legal weight and is often referenced in employment disputes. It provides security for both employer and employee by clearly documenting the terms of employment and helps ensure compliance with local labour regulations.
