Dear All,
One of the employees in my organization has been absent for the past three weeks without providing any information. We have been attempting to contact him on his phone number, but he is not responding. Please advise me on how to proceed with issuing a termination letter on behalf of the company.
Should a warning letter be sent before the termination letter?
If you have any templates for these letters, please send them as soon as possible.

Dear Paramjeet,
Please do not suggest publishing the termination details in the newspaper, as doing so could be considered defamation. The company could be held liable for defamation of the terminated individual. When providing references to a new prospective employer, the previous company can share information such as the employee's date of joining, date of relieving, salary details (CTC or Gross), and, if mentioned in the service certificate, the reason for leaving. However, the old company is not obligated to provide any speculative or predictive responses to inquiries from the new recruiter of the terminated employee.
Additionally, I would like to add that if the employee is a regular employee and has completed 240 days of service, then the termination must be published in the newspaper of your company's local area, as well as in the newspaper of the employee's local area.
Thank you.

Dear Ninie,
As your staff has conveyed about his problem, please have some humane consideration before terminating the staff. Of course, I can understand that you do not have the power to keep him or terminate him, and you have to obey the management decision. But you can influence the management to look at the matter with humanity.
Please send an email about the present position of his family and try to extend some help, if possible, for the absent staff. Upon his return, you can raise the formal or informal charge sheet, conduct disciplinary proceedings, and complete all the paperwork so that you do not feel in the future that we wrongfully terminated an innocent staff during his difficult period.
All the best.
