Dear All,
Greetings of the day.
my self sidharth kumar working as HR manager in the telecom sector. my company provides technical services to telecom operators like Airtel, Idea, Jio. Our job is to maintain tower signal strength, networking, for that we hired technician for the same. In our daily practice, it is observed that some of the technicians not performing as per company standard. They have given serval verbal instruction, notices on mail but the performance is still not up to mark. The mobile network signal is getting down very frequently in his area resulting in a heavy financial penalty to the company. Now management has decided to terminate those people.
Thus, I need your support and guidance in preparing the termination/Notice letter.
Thank you very much.

Dear Sidharth Kumar,
If the service technicians were not following the laid down SOPs for the mobile tower maintenance, then after giving the verbal warnings, you could have given them the written warning(s). If the employees remain intractable in spite of the written warnings, then a further step is to order the domestic enquiry. Based on the enquiry findings, you can terminate the delinquent employee.
However, in your case, you are jumping from the email warnings to the termination services. There is a risk of bypassing the domestic enquiry. What if the terminated employee(s) approach the labour court? What defence will you have to prove that the misconduct merited termination without even without the domestic enquiry?
If the employee commits some crime, involves in the vandalisation of the company property or any misconduct that falls within the purview of the "moral turpitude", merits the termination without enquiry.
In view of this, give a written warning to the employee(s) concerned. It could be the last and final warning. If the employee(s) remain(s) incorrigible, then you may go ahead with the enquiry and terminate the services of the employee(s).
Thanks,

@Dinesh ji, isn’t Email Warning equivalent to written warning? @Siddharth, is there any clause in your terms of employment that given in case of failure to perform the work and follow SOP?

Dear Saswataji,
Yes, a warning through email is very much a warning letter. However, the punch proper that a warning letter on a company letterhead delivers is different. In contrast, somehow a superficiality or casualness creeps in when the email is sent.
Secondly, in the duplicate copy or the office copy of the warning letter, when the signature is obtained, it brings seriousness in its wake.
Thanks,
