Document background
The Non Performance Termination Letter is a critical document used in Saudi Arabian employment relationships when an employer needs to terminate an employee's contract due to documented performance issues. It must be drafted in accordance with Saudi Labor Law and Sharia principles, which require clear documentation of performance deficiencies and evidence that the employee was given adequate opportunity to improve. The letter should reference previous warnings, performance improvement plans, and specific instances of non-performance. This document is particularly important in Saudi Arabia's employee-protective legal environment, where wrongful termination claims can result in significant liability for employers. The letter serves as both a formal notification and a legal record, documenting compliance with local employment laws and internal procedures.
