Document background
The Salary Increase Rejection Letter is a crucial document in Nigerian employment practice, used when an organization needs to formally decline an employee's request for a salary increase. This document becomes necessary when an employee has submitted a formal request for a salary increase, but the organization cannot or chooses not to approve it due to various factors such as budget constraints, performance issues, or business conditions. The letter must comply with Nigerian employment law, particularly the Labour Act and related regulations, while maintaining professional standards and preserving employee dignity. It typically includes the decision, detailed reasoning, and potential future opportunities or alternative benefits. The document serves both as a formal communication tool and a record of the decision for HR purposes.
