You're stopping wages. You're terminating health coverage. You need an official termination letter. Possibly a severance agreement. During periods of transition, you need to have all your bases covered. Our Employee Termination Kit has all the forms and letter templates you need.
It also has a simple how-to guide - a short PDF document that takes you through everything you need to do to prepare to terminate an employee.
Actually delivering the news is one of the - if not the - most difficult aspects of terminating an employee. In these moments it's important you say the things you need to say, refrain from saying anything that doesn't need to be said, and conduct the entire process "by the book."
The termination meeting checklist will come in handy for not only helping your prepare for the termination meeting, but while you're conducting it as well.
