Questions about the Employment Termination Letter

The basis for ending the employment (or no stated reason), the last day of employment, how final pay and any unused paid time off are handled, when health coverage ends, any severance offer, which company property to return and by when, and who to contact with questions.

Yes. Choose "At-will, no reason stated" and the letter gives no reason. You can instead select a basis, such as a position elimination or the end of a fixed term, and add a short factual note.

No. If you offer severance, the letter says the offer is conditioned on the employee signing a separate release agreement, which you prepare separately.

No. The optional acknowledgment confirms only that the employee received the letter.
