Document background
The Termination Letter Acknowledgement is a crucial document in Hong Kong employment relationships that formalizes the end of employment between an employer and employee. It is typically used following the issuance of a termination notice, whether the termination is initiated by either party or by mutual agreement. The document serves multiple purposes: it confirms receipt of the termination notice, documents the final employment date, details all terminal payments including salary, unused leave, and other entitlements, addresses company property return, and reinforces any post-employment obligations such as confidentiality. This document is particularly important in Hong Kong's legal context as it provides evidence of compliance with the Employment Ordinance and helps prevent future disputes by clearly documenting the agreed terms of separation.
