Document background
The Disciplinary Investigation Outcome Letter is a crucial document in Malaysian employment relations that formally concludes a workplace disciplinary investigation process. It is used when an organization has completed an investigation into alleged misconduct, policy violations, or performance issues and needs to communicate the findings and consequences to the employee involved. The document must align with Malaysian employment legislation, particularly the Employment Act 1955 and Industrial Relations Act 1967, while following principles of natural justice and fair procedure. The letter serves multiple purposes: it documents the investigation findings, communicates any disciplinary actions, provides a basis for future reference, and helps protect the organization legally by demonstrating due process. It should be issued promptly after the conclusion of the investigation and must include sufficient detail to justify the decisions made while maintaining clarity and professionalism.
