The Mutual Agreement Termination Letter is a crucial document used in Swiss employment law when both employer and employee agree to end their employment relationship by mutual consent. This approach differs from unilateral termination and is often preferred when parties wish to negotiate terms that may deviate from standard notice periods or when seeking an amicable separation. The document must comply with the Swiss Code of Obligations and relevant employment laws, covering essential elements such as the termination date, financial settlements, and ongoing obligations. It's particularly useful in situations where a clean break is desired, or when the parties wish to modify standard termination terms while ensuring legal compliance and protecting both parties' interests. The letter serves as formal documentation of the agreed terms and helps prevent future disputes by clearly stating all conditions of the separation.
