What is Notice Period?

A Notice Period refers to the length of time an employee must continue to work for their employer after they have announced their intention to leave their job. It can also apply to the amount of warning an employer must provide an employee before terminating their employment. The notice period acts as a transitional window for both the employer to find a replacement or reallocate tasks and for the employee to make necessary arrangements for their next career step.

When Should I Use Notice Period?

You should adhere to a Notice Period in several situations:

  • Resignation: When you decide to leave your job, it ensures a smooth transition and maintains professional relationships.
  • Termination: As an employer, when you need to terminate an employee’s contract in a fair and legally compliant manner.
  • Contractual Agreements: When the terms of your employment contract specify a required notice period for resignations or terminations.

How Do I Write Notice Period?

When composing a notice period letter, include the following elements:

  • Date: Clearly state the date of the letter.
  • Recipient: Address it to your employer or the appropriate HR representative.
  • Statement of Resignation/Termination: Clearly mention your intention to resign or terminate the employment.
  • Duration: Specify the duration of the notice period you’re providing.
  • Final Working Day: Outline your expected last working day based on the notice period given.
  • Gratitude: Optionally express appreciation for the opportunities during your tenure.
  • Signature: Conclude with your sign-off.

Example:

Dear [Employer’s Name],

I am writing to formally notify you of my resignation from [Company Name], effective [Last Working Day]. This provides you with a [Duration of Notice Period] notice period as per our contract agreement.

Thank you for the opportunities and support during my time with the company.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]

Which Contracts Typically Contain Notice Period?

Notice Periods are commonly found in the following types of contracts:

  • Employment Contracts: Most employment agreements will specify notice period durations required for either party to terminate the contract.
  • Service Contracts: Agreements for freelance or consultancy services may include notice periods for termination of service.
  • Lease Agreements: In leasing, notice periods can apply to the termination of property leases.
  • Probationary Contracts: Contracts for employees on probation often include shorter notice periods for flexibility.
