Hi,
In a situation where employer wants to withdraw the offer before the candidate is expected to be onboard, is there a process that needs to be followed?
The reason to withdraw the offer may be due to the market recession affecting the business after the offer release, freezing recruitments as well as any further joinees, decision made on economising cost post offer release, etc..
Kindly give me your valuable inputs.

Obviously, If candidate has resigned under the pretex of this offer letter Management shall continue with the offer because its matter of business ethics and legal aspect too.
No offer can turnout to be nightmare for the candidate resulting in suddenly candidates finds himself/herslef at the crossroads because of deception or illfate of the company who offered him/her a job.
Job Offer must be honoured in the right sprit instead of litigations and disrepute to the company.

hi,
if it is in case of freshers, it is ok, to communicate this to students thru institute mentioning the reasons for deferrment or cancellation of offer, since student may have very little to lose, apart from setback to his startup career aspirations.
But in case of laetral hiring, the companies must honour whatever may be the case, eventually the candidate is hired because there is/ was a need. Even, if company takes him in ecenomic meltdown scenario, the candidate will himself start looking for an alternate after joining, but at least this will protect the ethics of the organisation.
And I am sure this type of situation will occur in case of Middle or Junior cadre employee only, for which shedding some money will be peanuts for company but huge value for the employee.

IF the candidate has resigned then you need to pay him the specified monthly salary till the time he gets a new job. That is your responsibility.

Dear Navya,
This is a critical case and you need to handle it with utmost care.
To the best of my experience, first speak to the concerned in person or over phone. Be cautious while using words.
Secondly, if company policy so permits, you need to pay them the notice period. For instance, if you have a one month notic period policy, then you should reimburse them one month notice period pay.
Make sure you file all mails and communications with the employee in this regard in hard copy for future reference.
