Document background
The Exit Letter To Employee is a crucial document in Dutch employment relationships that formalizes the termination of employment. It is typically used following mutual agreement for termination, resignation, or dismissal, and must comply with Dutch employment law requirements. The letter serves multiple purposes: it confirms the termination date, outlines financial arrangements including the transition payment (transitievergoeding), specifies the treatment of outstanding benefits, details company property return requirements, and addresses post-employment obligations. This document is essential for both legal compliance and maintaining clear communication between parties during the employment termination process. The content must align with the Dutch Civil Code, the Work and Security Act, and any applicable collective labor agreements (CAOs).
