the suspension letter is a formal notice which must be served (ie delivered) properly.
check the contract of employment for any special rules about serving notices and make sure they are followed.
the safest way to serve notice is to deliver in person or failing this, to send by courier, post or email. if you sever the letter:
-
in person - hand the letter to the employee personally.
-
by post - it is recommended that you use recorded delivery and that you keep a copy of the proof of posting and delivery. check you have the employee's latest address.
-
by email - check that the employment contract allows you to send notices by email and whether it requires you to request a ‘read receipt’ as proof of service.
however you deliver the letter, it is recommend that you speak to the employee in person to let them know they are being suspended before serving the letter. if this is not practical, then you must make sure that the employee has received and read the letter.
when sending the letter, remember to enclose a copy of your disciplinary procedure.
keep a copy of the suspension letter for your records. a copy of the suspension letter will also be automatically stored in your 2022世界杯32强抽签时间 account ‘dashboard’.
