The Employment Termination Policy serves as a crucial document for organizations operating in Pakistan, establishing clear guidelines and procedures for managing employment terminations in accordance with local labor laws. This policy document is essential for ensuring consistent and legally compliant handling of all types of employment separations, from voluntary resignations to involuntary terminations. It incorporates requirements from key Pakistani legislation, including the Industrial and Commercial Employment (Standing Orders) Ordinance 1968, provincial labor laws, and relevant court precedents. The policy is designed to protect both employer and employee interests while minimizing legal risks and maintaining fair employment practices. It includes comprehensive procedures for notice periods, final settlements, exit interviews, and appeals processes, making it an indispensable tool for human resources management and organizational governance.
