The Lateral Transfer Letter Request is a formal document used in Malaysian organizations when an employee seeks to transfer to a different position or department at a similar level within the same company. This document is particularly important in the Malaysian business context, where formal written communication is expected for significant employment changes. The letter should comply with Malaysian employment law requirements, including the Employment Act 1955 and relevant industrial relations regulations. It typically includes the employee's current position details, requested new position, qualifications, rationale for transfer, and proposed transition timeline. The document serves as an official record of the transfer request and initiates the formal internal mobility process within the organization.
