Document background
The Letter Not To Continue Employment Contract is a crucial document used in Australian employment contexts when an employer decides not to extend or renew a fixed-term employment contract. This document must comply with Australian employment law, particularly the Fair Work Act 2009 and relevant state legislation. It is typically used when a fixed-term contract is approaching its end date and the employer has decided not to offer a renewal or extension. The letter should include essential information such as the final working day, notice period details, arrangements for final entitlements, and requirements for returning company property. Its purpose is to provide clear, written confirmation of the non-continuation decision while ensuring all legal obligations are met and the employee is fully informed of their rights and responsibilities during the transition period.
