final warning letter for poor performance Word Template Sample

Employees who persist in behavior that makes them fail at their jobs eventually need to formally hear about the problems. By the time a supervisor reaches the point of needing to write a formal letter of reprimand, he or she has likely invested several hours of coaching and counseling in helping the employee improve his or her performance.

Creating the paper trail that may lead to dismissal is prudent for the employer. It also keeps the employee from being surprised when his or her employment is ended. It's always best to clearly state the problems, the potential outcomes, and the needed performance improvement in writing.
