Sample Job Termination Letter

A Job Termination letter is written by the management to an employee whom it feels has not been performing to company’s expectations or has violated company’s work integrity or policies. Hence, a company can issue a job termination letter to terminate the services of the employee with or without giving any reason or further consideration.

Dear Mr. Neary

RE: Termination of Services

With this letter, I am writing to inform you that the company, Detroit Management Services, will be releasing you of your services as of January 15, 2011.

According to our terms of the contract, you were employed as a temporary measure since November 2010 to assist in the extra workload that the company has due to the holiday season. But now, the workload of Detroit Management Services has been returned to normal, and the current full-time staff can handle all work efficiently.

Thus, there is not enough work for you to warrant your employment in Detroit Management Services. Allow us to express our thanks for your few months of service at Detroit Management Services, and if we have the need to employ more workforce in the future, we shall call upon you again.

We wish you the best in your future undertakings.

For Detroit Management Services,

Peter Johnson
Personnel Manager
