A Demotion Notice is a crucial employment document used when an organization needs to move an employee to a lower-ranking position. This document, governed by English and Welsh law, is typically issued when performance issues arise, during organizational restructuring, or as an alternative to termination. The notice must carefully detail the changes in position, responsibilities, and compensation while ensuring compliance with UK employment legislation. It should be drafted with consideration of potential constructive dismissal claims and must include clear justification for the decision. The document serves as both a formal notification and a legal record of the changed employment terms.
