Document background
The Letter of Intent for Transfer of Job Position is a crucial document in Canadian employment practices that serves as an initial formal communication of an intended internal position transfer. This document is typically used when an organization plans to move an employee to a different role, department, or location within the company. It outlines the preliminary terms and conditions of the transfer while complying with Canadian federal and provincial employment laws. The letter includes essential information such as the proposed new position, changes in responsibilities, reporting structure, compensation adjustments, and intended timeline for the transfer. While not legally binding in all aspects, it sets clear expectations and demonstrates the company's intention to proceed with the transfer, subject to final agreement and documentation. This document is particularly important in larger organizations where formal processes are required for internal mobility and workforce planning.
