Document background
The Internal Transfer Offer Letter is a crucial document used when an employee moves to a different role, department, or location within the same organization in Hong Kong. It serves as an official record of the transfer terms while ensuring compliance with Hong Kong employment laws, particularly the Employment Ordinance (Cap. 57) and related legislation. The document typically includes details about the new position, revised compensation package, effective date, and any changes to employment terms, while confirming the continuation of employment service and existing benefits. This letter should be issued before the transfer takes effect and requires formal acceptance by the employee to establish clear agreement on the modified employment terms. It's particularly important in Hong Kong's dynamic business environment where internal mobility is common and proper documentation is essential for both legal compliance and good HR practice.
