The Employee Notice of Termination to Employer is a crucial document in South African employment relationships, required whenever an employee decides to end their employment voluntarily. It must comply with the Basic Conditions of Employment Act 75 of 1997, which mandates specific notice periods: one week if employed for six months or less, two weeks if employed for more than six months but not more than one year, and four weeks if employed for one year or more. The document serves multiple purposes: it formally notifies the employer of the employee's intention to leave, establishes the last working day, outlines handover arrangements, and ensures legal compliance. It should be professionally written and maintained as part of the employee's personnel record, protecting both parties' interests and facilitating a smooth transition process.
