Notice of Non-Renewal of Employment Agreement

The Notice of Non-Renewal of Employment Agreement is a document an employer sends to notify their employee that their employment contract will not be renewed. An employment contract is a document specifying the terms of employment, including the duration of employment, compensation, and other conditions of employment. Some employments are for a fixed period, while some contracts are set to renew automatically, except the employer cancels the contract. In this case, this document is used only for fixed contract employment and gives the employer the opportunity to renew the contract.

Therefore, this document is used in cases where the employer does not wish to renew the contract, which means the contract will be terminated, and sending this notice is the only way to ensure that the contract will not be renewed. It is required when the employer does not want to offer a renewal of the contract. This document is different from the termination letter. An employer issues a Termination Letter to the employee when the employee is laid off from work before the expiration of the term of the contract. On the other hand, a Non-Renewal is used when the employee's employment contract has expired and the employer does not want to renew the contract.
