Hi,
I would like to know how to correctly deal with employees that abscond from duty. Later on they typically ask for pending salaries and relieving letters.
- What is the legally correct procedure to deal with such people?
- Can we terminate their employment after sending 1 or 2 notices?
- Is there a provision in the law to protect employer's interest? e.g. an employee that suddenly goes missing typically causes a loss of more this his/her one month's salary. In such case, the company will further bear more loss by paying them.
If we draw up an employment agreement with clause that any un-approved leave of absence for more than 5 days will result in termination - is this legally correct? given that we will add enough clauses to deal with medical emergency of employees and their families (with proof).
Thanks
