Document background
A Termination Letter With Cause is a critical document used when an employer needs to formally end an employment relationship due to specific violations or misconduct under UAE Labor Law. This document must strictly comply with Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 and related UAE labor regulations, which provide specific grounds for termination with cause, including gross misconduct, fraudulent behavior, or significant policy violations. The letter serves multiple purposes: it documents the legal basis for termination, outlines the specific causes leading to this decision, details the final settlement terms, and specifies post-employment obligations. This document is particularly important in the UAE context as it must align with local labor law requirements regarding notice periods, end-of-service benefits, and procedural fairness, while protecting the employer's interests in case of potential legal disputes.
