Document background
A Termination Notice To Employer is a crucial document in Malaysian employment relations that formalizes an employee's decision to end their employment. It must be drafted in accordance with Malaysian employment legislation, particularly the Employment Act 1955 and relevant employment regulations. The document should be used when an employee has made the decision to leave their current employment and needs to formally communicate this to their employer. It typically includes essential information such as the notice period (as per employment contract or statutory requirements), last working day, and arrangements for handover of duties. The notice period in Malaysia typically ranges from 4-8 weeks depending on length of service and contract terms. This document serves as legal proof of the employee's intention to terminate employment and helps ensure a smooth transition process while protecting both parties' interests under Malaysian law.
