Document background
The Termination Of Contract Letter To Employer is a essential document in Philippine employment law that formally initiates the process of voluntary employment termination by an employee. This document is required whenever an employee decides to end their employment relationship, regardless of the reason, and must comply with the notice requirements specified in the Labor Code of the Philippines (typically 30 days unless otherwise stated in the employment contract). The letter serves multiple purposes: it provides official documentation of the resignation, helps ensure proper processing of final pay and benefits, and initiates the necessary clearance procedures. It should be professionally written and contain specific elements required by Philippine law, including clear statement of intent to resign, effective date, and commitment to proper handover of responsibilities. The document is particularly important as it helps protect both parties' interests and ensures a smooth transition process while maintaining compliance with local employment regulations.
