Document background
The Letter Inviting Employee To Investigation Meeting is a crucial document in Philippine employment practice that initiates formal workplace investigations while ensuring compliance with legal due process requirements. It is typically used when there are allegations of misconduct, performance issues, or other workplace concerns that require formal investigation. The document must comply with Philippine Labor Code requirements, particularly the 'twin notice rule' established by jurisprudence, and should be issued before any disciplinary action can be taken. The letter serves multiple purposes: it informs the employee of specific allegations, schedules the investigation meeting, outlines the employee's rights (including representation), and documents the employer's commitment to fair procedure. This document is particularly important as it may be scrutinized in potential labor cases to demonstrate adherence to due process requirements.
