Dear All,
I want to give one of my employees a letter stating that "your salary has been reduced, and you are being placed on a Performance Improvement Plan for the next 6 months as your work is not found to be satisfactory, among other reasons. If you improve your work, we will restore your salary to what was decided at the time of your joining.
Please help me with the letter.
Regards,

Dear Pooja,
Instead of reducing the salary, you may put him on a PIP (Performance Improvement Plan) and based on the outcome in a month or two, you may choose to continue or relieve him. This may set the right precedence in the organization.
In my opinion, if you reduce the salary, it might demotivate others in the organization, as you know such news spreads quickly within the organization.
As we know, all organizations' objective is to have the right and performing workforce, you should only focus on performance. If there is a gap in performance, you may consider moving him to a different assignment he is passionate about or a different role and adjust the pay accordingly with mutual consent.
Good Luck! KK
