Free Printable Release Covenant, Employee & Employer Form

This review list is intended to educate you about the subject of this document and to aid you in its preparation. This Release Covenant is a concise, basic legal document that should be signed when workers, contractors, or similar providers with strong links to your company terminate or cease their services. We offer more comprehensive and complex releases under the Business Agreements section. However, they are frequently more offensive to the signer. This is a more straightforward arrangement that is less intimidating yet highly protective in the long run.

 

  1. Maintain blank copies of termination files in your termination files. Prepare one for the

recipient; one for their file; and one for the company file.

 

  1. From the Employee’s perspective, unless you intend to sue your Employer, signing this

agreement releases you as well and legally terminates your connection.

 

  1. While initial impressions are critical, dismissed or resigned workers should keep in mind

that last impressions are just as critical. Someday, you’ll need a reference from a previous employer; the stronger your final impression, the more likely they’ll recommend you positively.

Review List

This review list is provided to inform you about this document in question and assist you in its preparation. This Release Covenant is a small simple legal utility to get signed upon the termination or cessation of services of employees, contractors, or similar suppliers that have significant ties to your form. In the Business Agreement area we have more detailed and complex releases. But, they are often more off putting to the signer. This is a simpler agreement that is less threatening but quite protective in an overall sense.

1. Keep blank copies in your termination files. Make a copy for the recipient; keep one in their file; and one in the corporate file.
2. From the Employee’s point of view, unless you intend to bring suit against your Employer, signing this document releases you as well and ends your relationship on a solid legal footing.
3. While first impressions are important, terminated or resigning employees should remember that last impressions are equally important. Some day you will want a recommendation from former employers; the better your last impression, the better the chance for a positive outcome in their recommendation for you.
