Termination of Employment Writers

What are Termination of Employment Policies?

Termination of employment policies outline the procedures for ending an employee’s contract, whether through resignation, dismissal, redundancy, or mutual agreement.

These HR policies help ensure that all terminations are managed lawfully, consistently and with appropriate documentation, reducing the risk of disputes or legal claims.

What Do Termination of Employment Policies Cover?

A termination policy typically includes:

• Notice periods and how they are calculated

• Procedures for resignation, retirement and dismissal

• Fair reasons for dismissal under UK employment law

• Disciplinary and capability considerations

• Final pay, accrued holiday and outstanding entitlements

• Exit interviews and return of company property

• Record-keeping and legal obligations

A clear policy helps managers follow the correct process and maintain professional standards, even when managing difficult or sensitive exits.

It also supports compliance with key legislation such as the Employment Rights Act 1996 and the ACAS Code of Practice, helping to prevent unfair dismissal claims or procedural errors.

Effective termination procedures also contribute to a positive organisational reputation, showing that employees are treated fairly and respectfully at all stages of the employment relationship. They also provide an opportunity to gather valuable feedback and improve future retention.
