Release E-mail Template For HR Professional

Release E-mail Template For HR Professional

Separation of an employee from the organization is the last stage in the employee lifecycle. Once an employee tenders his/her resignation, the organization should provide him/her with a release/relief an email to document proof of the end of the employee’s relationship with the company. The email, while discharging the employee of his/her role, also ensures proper closure of the process. A positive release/relief email can also serve as a means of continuing the relationship, even after the end of his/her tenure in the company.

This email should essentially contain the following:
● State the designation of the individual from which he/she is being relieved.
● Thank the individual for his/her contribution to the organization.
● Mention the conduct of the individual.
● Mention the length of service of the individual in the company.
● State any significant contribution he/she has made during his/her tenure.
● Mention the next steps to be followed by both the employee and the company to ensure a smooth closure.
● Mention the notice period to be served as per the company’s policy.
