Employee Termination Checklist

About this template

Employee termination marks the end of an employee’s employment, for either disciplinary or voluntary reasons. Whether you lead a company’s HR department or manage human resources yourself for your small business, our free Employee Termination Checklist PDF Template will help create a smoother transition for both your company and your former employees. Simply fill out a short form with the employee’s information and reasons for termination, and the template will automatically convert that information to a polished, professional PDF that’s easy to download and print for the employee’s file.

This modern Employee Termination Checklist Template is ready to go, but if you’d like to change the design or add more form fields, use our PDF Editor to customize the template to match your needs. Feel free to add more items to your checklist, such as returned items and equipment, or further details on the exit interview. You can also include a signature form field to turn your checklist into a termination agreement. Letting go of employees is never easy, but with a custom, automated Employee Termination Checklist Template, you’ll more easily document every step of the termination process and protect your company from the risk of legal repercussions.

These templates are suggested forms only. If you're using a form as a contract, or to gather personal (or personal health) info, or for some other purpose with legal implications, we recommend that you do your homework to ensure you are complying with applicable laws and that you consult an attorney before relying on any particular form.
