Document background
The 14 Day Termination Notice is a crucial document in Malaysian employment practice, designed to formally communicate the termination of employment while ensuring compliance with local labor laws, particularly the Employment Act 1955. This document is typically used when either the employer or employee wishes to end the employment relationship in accordance with contractual terms that specify a 14-day notice period. The notice serves multiple purposes: it officially documents the termination decision, establishes the timeline for the employment's end, outlines the transition process, and specifies any final payments or obligations. The document must be carefully drafted to ensure it meets all legal requirements under Malaysian law, including proper notification periods, statement of entitlements, and procedural fairness. It's particularly important in maintaining proper documentation for regulatory compliance and protecting both parties' interests during the termination process.
