The Illinois Notice of Termination is a legal document used by employers in the state of Illinois to formally terminate the employment of an employee. This document is issued to all employees who are being dismissed from their position and outlines the reason for the termination, the date of termination, and any applicable severance or other benefits. In addition to providing notice of the termination, the document also serves as a release of any claims an employee may have against the employer. There are two types of Illinois Notice of Termination. The first is the Non-Cause Notice of Termination, which is used when no cause or fault is attributed to the employee for their termination. This type of notice typically includes the terms of any severance package and other benefits, such as outplacement or health insurance. The second type of Illinois Notice of Termination is a Cause Notice of Termination, which is used when the employee has been found to have caused the termination. This type of notice typically includes information about the cause of the termination, such as misconduct or unsatisfactory performance, as well as any applicable legal remedies.
