The Termination Letter For Job Abandonment is a crucial document used in German employment contexts when an employee has ceased attending work without authorization or communication. It represents the final formal step in addressing job abandonment after previous attempts to contact the employee have been exhausted. This document must comply with German labor law, particularly BGB §626 regarding extraordinary termination for good cause, and may require works council consultation in companies where such bodies exist. The letter serves multiple purposes: it formally documents the termination, provides legal protection for the employer, and establishes a clear record for potential legal proceedings. It should only be used after documented attempts to contact the employee and following appropriate waiting periods as established by German case law. The document includes essential information about the employment relationship, specific dates of absence, communication attempts, and instructions regarding final arrangements.
