Document background
The End of Contract Notice to Employer is a crucial document in Australian employment relations, used when an employee wishes to formally terminate their employment contract. This document is essential for compliance with the Fair Work Act 2009 and related Australian employment legislation. It should be used when an employee has decided to end their employment, whether due to new opportunities, personal circumstances, or the completion of a fixed-term contract. The notice typically includes the intended last day of employment, ensures compliance with contractual notice periods, addresses final entitlements, and outlines handover arrangements. It serves as official documentation of the employee's departure intention and helps maintain professional relationships while ensuring legal obligations are met. The document is particularly important in Australia's highly regulated employment environment, where proper documentation of employment termination is crucial for both legal compliance and good business practice.
