It is revealed that you have not shown any sign of improvement in your performance and your continuation with the service of the organization will be against the company's policies and interest. It has, therefore, been provisionally decided to terminate your services as per the terms and conditions of your employment.

You are hereby called upon to show cause notice as to why your service should not be terminated as per the contract of employment. Your reply is expected within 4 days from the receipt of this show cause notice. If your reply is not received within the stipulated time, it shall be deemed that you have nothing to say against the proposed action, and further action will be taken on the said basis.

1. This appears to be a show-cause notice issued to a person relating to performance. The heading indicates that a behavioral issue is also involved, though the show-cause notice does not make any mention of this.

2. The initiator (Deepakganesh) has not specified the point(s) on which he seeks a discussion or opinion.

Thanks,

Anonymous, Hi to all. This is the old practice of terminating an employee due to cost cutting. Business may be shrinking......

Show cause notice should specify the reasons why the company is considering terminating the service of an employee. Without specific or provable reasons, the show cause notice can be contested in a labor court if you are classified as labor. Even in managerial positions, HR should request reasons from the concerned department head before issuing a show cause notice to an employee.

Dear Worried:

If you feel that the SCN is not justified, you need to approach the HR Manager and seek clarification or give explanations. If, however, the reason(s) is/are justified, reply immediately and set your professional/personal house in order.

Hello Arif,

Could you please let me know how to reply to this kind of Show Cause Notice (SCN) and what are the formalities for SCN reply? What actions are expected from the organization's side and what is the general process for responding to an SCN?

Thank you.

Dear Sir,

Reference your SCN of ---- wherein you stated that I have not shown any improvement in my performance since ----. You'll appreciate, Sir, at the last Annual Performance you yourself had appropriately congratulated/compensated me. However, if you still feel otherwise, I can show up any time and meet you along with my supervisor. If there are any 'knotty' issues, they can be ironed out.

For me, like for all other staff, the Co's vision, mission, and goals are ever near and dear to me.

All the best to all at (name of the company).

Warmest regards

Please note:

1. No organizations repeatedly issue SCNs without rhyme or reason.
2. Study very clearly what the contract says regarding the performance of your functions.
3. If you have underperformed, don't argue or justify your stance.
4. Accept your failure, promise to improve, and sincerely continue to give your best.
5. Remember, before any service unit issues a notice, it does its homework in all quarters.
6. When at fault, accept it and never delay.
7. If not at fault, have the moral courage to speak or write your mind in the clearest terms possible.

Hope these help.
