Document background
The Notice To Employer is a crucial document in Belgian employment law that formalizes an employee's decision to end their employment relationship. This document must be submitted when an employee wishes to voluntarily terminate their employment contract, ensuring compliance with Belgian legal requirements for notice periods and formal communication. The notice period, calculated according to the Employment Contracts Act and related legislation, varies based on the employee's seniority and position. The document must be written in the appropriate language (Dutch, French, or German) depending on the region of employment. A properly drafted Notice To Employer protects both parties' interests by clearly stating the intention to resign, the notice period, and the last working day, while maintaining professional standards and legal compliance.
