How to inform staff of an employee's termination, with a sample: a short message from the manager the same day, stating that the person has left the company, effective when, who is covering their work and who to contact, with thanks where they are due and nothing about the reason. The reason is the employee's private business and the employer's legal exposure; the message is logistics. The review template on this site records the decision and the file it rests on, free; HeadcountDesk Pro keeps the file and the offboarding checklist.

The sample

Team, as of today, the named person is no longer with the company. Their accounts are being handled by the named cover, and questions about their work go to the named contact. Please join me in thanking them for their contribution and wishing them well. Sent by the manager, the same day.

What is left out

The reason, the performance history, the conversation, any characterisation. Colleagues will ask; the answer is that it is a private matter and the cover arrangements are these.

The order of the day

The employee is told first, in person, with the letter; access is revoked; the team is told; customers are told where the person was their contact. The offboarding checklist carries the sequence; Pro keeps it.

The file behind the decision

The reviews, the warnings and the notes that support the decision are in the confidential file, kept for their retention period. The free review template on this site recorded them at the time. From the vendors' own pricing pages: Homebase lists Essentials at $24 per location per month billed annually or $30 monthly, with a free Basic plan for one location of up to ten employees; BambooHR lists Core at $10 and Pro at $17 per employee per month; Deputy lists Core at $6.50 per user per month.
