Dear [Employee's Name], RE: NOTICE OF DEMOTION We regret to inform you that, due to unforeseen circumstances, we are compelled to take the difficult decision of demoting you from your current position at [Company Name]. We understand that this may come as a shock, but we believe it is necessary to address certain concerns that have arisen in your performance and conduct. Puerto Rico, officially known as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, is an unincorporated territory of the United States. It is an archipelago located in the northeastern Caribbean Sea, approximately 1,000 miles southeast of Miami, Florida. Despite its unique political status, Puerto Rico is an integral part of the United States, and its residents are American citizens. The capital city is San Juan and the official languages are Spanish and English. Puerto Rico is rich in history, culture, and natural beauty, making it an attractive tourist destination for visitors from around the world. The island offers a range of diverse attractions, including pristine beaches, lush rainforests, historic landmarks, vibrant cities, and a vibrant culinary scene. Old San Juan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is famous for its colorful colonial buildings, narrow streets, and notable landmarks such as El Morro fortress. The people of Puerto Rico, known as Puerto Ricans, are warm, friendly, and proud of their cultural heritage. The island's culture is a fusion of indigenous Taint, Spanish, African, and American influences, resulting in a unique blend of traditions, music, dance, and art. Traditional folkloric dances like Bomb and Elena are performed during festivals and celebrations, showcasing Puerto Rico's vibrant cultural identity. However, despite the many positives that Puerto Rico has to offer, it also faces numerous challenges. The island has experienced economic difficulties in recent years, leading to financial constraints and a high unemployment rate. Additionally, Puerto Rico has struggled with natural disasters, including hurricanes and earthquakes, causing widespread devastation and impacting the overall well-being of its residents. In light of these circumstances, we have closely reviewed your performance, attendance, and behavior within the workplace. It is unfortunate to note that there have been consistent instances of poor productivity, excessive absenteeism, and repeated failure to adhere to company policies and procedures.

Therefore, effective [date], you will be demoted from your current position as [current position] to the role of [new position]. This demotion is being implemented to provide you with an opportunity to address the concerns that have been raised and to realign your performance with the expectations set forth by the company. As a demoted employee, your responsibilities, reporting structure, and compensation will be adjusted accordingly. We believe this step will provide you with an opportunity to regain your footing and grow professionally within the organization.

We are confident in your abilities and believe that, with dedication and a proactive approach, you can successfully address the areas of concern.
