Hello Seniors,
One of the employees of my company resigned. He had recently joined just four days ago (26th Nov). Suddenly, he stopped coming to the office since 1st Dec, and today, i.e., Monday, 3rd Dec, he emailed his resignation. Although his appointment letter was ready, he had not collected it.
In this case, what action should be taken against him?
Please reply...

Neelam,
These are the common things in the HR Department in the case of new joiners. You just need to do one thing: ask the reason for absconding and do not accept their resignation until they have served the notice period.
Thank you.

The reason he mentioned is a better opportunity with some other company. He has not collected the appointment letter from the HR Dept. but has submitted all his joining documents. Is it okay if we do not accept his resignation letter.
Please guide.

Ask him about better opportunities. What does that mean? Is it in terms of salary, growth, distance, or does he like your office environment?
Also, consider how many days he has worked. Update your database if he is absent and do not release his salary.

Basic things in terms of HR: mark him as absconding and do not accept the resignation letter as he has not even completed 3/6 months in the company. No need to worry, just send him a letter about the absconding, and the case will be closed.

Dear Member,
A few questions before I can answer the question:
1. Does your offer letter state any terms and conditions about the probation period, confirmation, and notice period? If yes, what are they? As he has not collected the appointment letter, he may deny the knowledge of any notice period or other terms and conditions of his employment.

If there was no acceptance of the agreement of employment (Appointment/Joining Letter) from both sides, there is no need to do anything henceforth, and you need to close this chapter here. But one thing that you have to take seriously is BACKGROUND VERIFICATION/CHECKING of a Candidate that will help you in this kind of cases in the future at some point.
Second, it does not matter what joining documents he has provided and formalities you have done at your end or not, but if he is yet to sign his appointment letter or collect it from you (indicating he was not an employee of yours), he can leave for whatever reason, and he did this too. It is also evident that something is wrong on your side that allowed a candidate so easily to join you and work for a few days even without getting signed any Mutual Agreement of Employment, enabling him to leave as he was seeking a better and good opportunity.
Now you need to learn and take this case seriously.

Just four days and you are worried!
1. Do not send any communication.
2. Mark him absent.
3. Do not even calculate his salary and do not include his name in the payroll.
4. If you have already included his name in the payroll, then take it out after 10 days.
5. Do not deposit PF or ESI if possible.
6. If he comes directly, then think about it.
In all probability, he may not come, and he does not require your certificates. Probably, he also does not want four days' salary. Just ignore. Search for another person. Do not waste your time and energy on a guy who has absconded.
