Document background
The Job Offer Rejection Letter Due To Health Reasons is a critical document used when an employer must decline a candidate's application or withdraw a job offer based on health-related factors that would prevent the safe or effective performance of essential job functions. This document is particularly relevant in South African contexts where specific health or physical requirements are inherent requirements of the role. The letter must be drafted in compliance with South African legislation, including the Employment Equity Act, Labour Relations Act, and POPIA, ensuring that the rejection is based on objective criteria and not unfair discrimination. The document should include clear justification linking the health requirement to the position's inherent requirements while maintaining appropriate confidentiality regarding medical information.
