Document background
The 7 Days Notice Letter is a crucial document in Dutch employment relationships where a short notice period is contractually permitted. It is typically used in situations where either party wishes to terminate the employment relationship and the employment contract specifically allows for a seven-day notice period. This document must be drafted in compliance with Dutch employment law, particularly the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek), and should include specific details about the termination date, handover procedures, and final settlements. The letter serves as official documentation of the notice given and helps ensure a clear and legally compliant termination process. It's particularly relevant in temporary contracts, probationary periods, or specific employment situations where short notice periods have been agreed upon in advance.
