Document background
The Letter To Employee For Not Serving Notice Period is a critical document used when an employee departs from an organization without fulfilling their contractual notice period obligations under New Zealand employment law. This document is typically issued when an employee either abruptly leaves their position or gives insufficient notice compared to their contractual requirements. The letter serves multiple purposes: it formally documents the breach of contract, outlines any financial implications (such as salary deductions or recovery of costs), reminds the employee of their ongoing obligations, and establishes a clear record for potential legal proceedings. It must comply with New Zealand's Employment Relations Act 2000 and related employment legislation, while also adhering to principles of fairness and good faith in employment relationships.
