Now days employee Come to work From Various Places . May a time the employees leave the job without informing the management and also do not handover their pending assignment to the juniors.

We wish to retain their orginal cerftificate and hand them over when they resign and handover their assigment to their juniors.

It is legal to keep their orginal certificate for verifcation and sage custody . The same will returned to them when they resign??

Please advise

It is very dangerous though there is no any legal bar but practically I have seen various employers facing court cases in the name of loss of original documents or in the name of false or forged certificates.

It shall be better to take bond or bank guarantee rather doing such practice.

Taking bank guarantee or bond as a condition for employment is more safe.

However,unless your company is a reputed one,it is very difficult to get bank guarantee/bond from prospective employees.
