How To Terminate A Contract With A Contractor

You are not required to contact Oyster when considering terminating a contractor. The Oyster platform allows you to initiate termination at any time. This is available for Super Admin Users on your company account. 

STEPS:

1. Log into the OysterHR Platform.
2. Click on People > Team.
   
   
3. Click on the name of the Team Member (Contractor).
4. On the Team Member profile, navigate to the Contract tab.
   
   
5. Clicking on the Terminate Contract button will open a pop-up window, which then allows you to fill out the request form. The form will be slightly different depending on the type of contractor.
   • For FIXED contractors
     
     
   • For PAYG contractors
     
     
6. The platform pre-populates the values for the termination date and last payment, however, the Super Admin can update both values. Please note the following:
   
   • The proposed termination date can be in the past.
   • The last payment amount can be set to zero (0).
7. Once the form details are completed, click on "Terminate". This will create a termination request.
   •  If the termination date is in the future, the termination will be scheduled as indicated and the contractor will receive an email notification with the scheduled termination details on their dashboard. 
   •  If the termination date is in the past, the termination will be initiated within an hour and the contractor will receive an email notification.
