Dear _____________:

Further to our discussion on __________ [insert date], we regretfully give notice that because of the Company's financial situation, we have no option but to lay you off from your current position with us.

We regret that we have been forced to take this action, however we are working hard to make positive changes in the Company's position, to ensure that the layoff period is as short as possible.

Yours truly,
