Dutch term or phrase: loopbriefje
Tevens ontvangt werknemer een loopbriefje ‘uit dienst’
(gaat over Uitdiensttreding procedure)
I'm wondering if this is something like a "signing-off card" as the text later refers to managers signing this document....

Explanation:
would be adequate here, even though a 'loopbriefje' doesn't only refer to getting appropriate signatures.
Your context, however, allows 'sign-off form'.

walking papers


Explanation:
Can't help thinking this sounds like getting your walking papers: a letter saying your employment has been terminated.
It's an expression in English, but not an uncommon one.
