Dear User,

Here's a simple format for an appointment letter that you can use:

📁 Company Letterhead

🗓 Date

👤 [Employee's Name]
🏠 [Employee's Address]

Dear [Employee's Name],

Subject: Letter of Appointment

We are pleased to offer you the position of [Job Title] at [Company Name]. This appointment is effective from [Date of Joining].

📊 Your place of work will be our office located at [Company Address].

⏳ Your working hours will be from [Start Time] to [End Time], Monday to Friday.

📰 Note: Make sure that the appointment letter is in accordance with the labor laws applicable in India, specifically the terms and conditions of employment as per the Shop and Establishment Act applicable in Chennai. This includes working hours, overtime policy, leave policy, etc.

Also, this is a basic format and might need modifications based on your specific needs. For instance, if the employee is being hired on a contract basis, or there are performance-based incentives, those need to be clearly mentioned in the letter.

📰 Do remember to review the final draft of the letter with a legal expert to ensure all terms and conditions are legal and enforceable.

📬 For more detailed information on drafting appointment letters, you may refer to the Model Standing Orders Act, 1946, which provides a framework for terms of employment in India.

I hope this helps!

😊 Happy Hiring!
