Hello – If the start date on an offer letter needs to be changed, once an employee has signed back, do you recommend issuing a new letter? Is it sufficient to have an email from the candidate where they are requesting the date to to be moved and the company agreeing. Thank you.

Yes, if the start date on an offer letter needs to be changed after the employee has signed it, it is recommended to issue a new letter with the corrected start date. This will ensure that all parties have a clear understanding of the agreed-upon start date, and it will also serve as a legal record of the updated terms of employment.

When issuing a new offer letter, it is important to clearly indicate that it supersedes any previous offer letters or employment agreements.
