In person - hand the Letter to the employee personally.

By post - consider using recorded delivery and keeping a copy of the proof of posting and delivery. Make sure that you have the employee’s latest address before posting the Letter.

If this isn’t practical, make sure that the employee actually receives and reads the Letter.
