The Internal Candidate Rejection document is essential for organizations managing internal mobility and career development processes in Ireland. It is used when an existing employee has applied for and been unsuccessful in securing a different position within the organization. The document must comply with Irish employment law, including the Employment Equality Acts 1998-2015, GDPR requirements, and industrial relations legislation. It should be used immediately after the selection decision has been made and should include specific feedback, development suggestions, and information about future opportunities. The document plays a crucial role in maintaining employee engagement, ensuring transparency in internal processes, and protecting the organization from potential legal challenges. Special consideration is given to the sensitive nature of internal rejections and their potential impact on employee retention and motivation.
