A Final Written Warning Letter is a crucial document in the Philippine employment context, representing the last formal step in progressive discipline before termination. It is typically issued after previous verbal and written warnings have failed to correct inappropriate behavior or performance issues. The document must comply with Philippine Labor Code requirements, particularly Article 297 and relevant DOLE regulations regarding due process in disciplinary actions. The letter serves multiple purposes: documenting the specific violation, establishing a clear record of progressive discipline, providing the employee with a final opportunity to improve, and protecting the employer's interests in case termination becomes necessary. It should include detailed information about the violation, reference to previous warnings, specific improvement requirements, and clear consequences of non-compliance.
