The Termination Letter For Lying is a crucial document used in Nigerian employment contexts when an employer needs to formally end an employment relationship due to proven dishonesty. It must comply with Nigerian labour laws and regulations, including the Labour Act and relevant case law from the National Industrial Court. The letter should be used when there is documented evidence of lying or dishonesty that breaches the employment contract or company policies. It must include specific details of the incident(s), reference to relevant policies or contracts violated, and clear termination terms. The document serves multiple purposes: it formally communicates the termination decision, provides a legal record of the grounds for termination, outlines final entitlements, and protects the employer from potential wrongful termination claims under Nigerian law.
