In the layoff letter, you also must include the triggering event that led to the layoff. Lastly, many managers worry about giving references because they want to avoid a defamation lawsuit.

Even if you terminate for an illegal reason, you can significantly cut your chance of a suit by treating the employee well during the dismissal process. Because the guideline layoff approach was so flawed, I developed the lay off Risk Estimate & Protection System(tm) (TREPS).
Therefore, it is important to follow the proper process when firing personnel. It is potentially dangerous to lay off a pregnant worker because, under the Pregnancy Bias Act (which is part of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964), it's improper to discriminate against pregnant workforce.

If you eventually terminate an employee for sexual harassment, you need this legal substantiation to support your decision. In it you should be honest about what has lead to the termination of workforce.
