Document background
The Severance Notice is a crucial document used in Pakistan when terminating employment relationships, whether through redundancy, performance issues, or mutual agreement. It must comply with the Industrial and Commercial Employment (Standing Orders) Ordinance, 1968, and relevant provincial labor laws. The document serves multiple purposes: it officially communicates the termination decision, specifies the notice period and last working day, outlines the final settlement components, and details the transition process. This notice is legally required in Pakistan and must include specific elements such as termination date, notice period, final settlement calculations, and company property return procedures. It protects both employer and employee interests by clearly documenting the termination terms and ensuring compliance with local employment laws.
