Document background
The Disciplinary Hearing Letter is a crucial document in Singapore's employment framework, required when formal disciplinary action is being considered against an employee. It must comply with Singapore's Employment Act and Tripartite Guidelines on Fair Employment Practices. The letter serves multiple purposes: documenting the allegations, setting out the hearing process, informing the employee of their rights, and establishing a clear paper trail for potential future reference. It should be issued with sufficient notice before the hearing and must include specific details about the alleged misconduct or performance issues, ensuring procedural fairness and legal compliance.
