Document background
The Transfer Letter For Employee is a crucial document in South African employment practice, used when an organization needs to formally document the movement of an employee to a different position, department, or location within the same company. This document is essential for ensuring compliance with South African labour laws, particularly the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995 and the Basic Conditions of Employment Act 75 of 1997. It serves multiple purposes: officially communicating the transfer details, confirming the maintenance or modification of employment terms, ensuring continuity of service, and providing clarity on new reporting structures and responsibilities. The letter becomes part of the employee's permanent employment record and helps prevent future disputes by clearly documenting the transfer terms and conditions.
