Question 2: Termination Letter for Peter Stevenson
Subject: Work Performance Termination Letter
Peter Stevenson,
This is to inform you that your employment with the Office Supply Store is likely to end from
June 25, 2018 and the decision is irreversible
We had to terminate you solely on the reasons based on your poor performance. On January 15,
2018 there were certain performance coaching arranged for your performance improvement with
the company so that you can continue. But you still happen to come late to the office, leave 30
minutes prior to the scheduled timing and take extended breaks. The first verbal warning was
issued to you within 12th February 2018 to 16th February 2018. The second warning was issued
on 20th February 2018 where you were informed that failure in improving the performance within
a sixty days time scale would result in your termination.
However, you seem to have failed in meeting the agreed performance targets. Hence, your
employment faces termination.
