Document background
The Initial Offer Letter is a crucial document in the Pakistani employment process, serving as the first formal written communication of employment terms between an employer and a potential employee. This document is typically used after successful completion of the recruitment process and before the issuance of a detailed employment contract. It needs to comply with various Pakistani labor laws, including the Employment and Service Conditions Act 1965, Industrial and Commercial Employment Ordinance 1968, and relevant provincial regulations. The letter should clearly communicate essential employment terms while maintaining flexibility for negotiation. It forms the foundation for the employment relationship and, once accepted, becomes a legally binding document that protects both parties' interests.
