Why this form is necessary

Understanding the reasons why someone has chosen to leave their employment, and gaining insight into their honest thoughts on what it was like to work for this employer can help strengthen the employer employee relationship for others, and help improve the culture.

To make the exit conversation as meaningful and productive, use this form to act as guidance and structure ensuring all critical points of information are touched upon during the conversation.

There is no legal requirement to conduct an exit interview, but they can provide you with some useful information about underlying issues within your organisation.

An exit interview should not be held on the employee's last day as they may be somewhat disengaged at that point and honest feedback may not be as forthcoming.
