Hello,
Our company employee left the job without any notice period or resignation. Now, he is working in another company. He did not hand over anything about the company property that he used. We want to send a letter to his current company about him. Can anybody help me with what we should put in the letter?

Dear Ginnia,
I personally feel that rather than intimating his current organization, you should inform the employee directly. There is an employee-employer relationship between both of you, and the dispute is between your company and the employee. His current organization is not privy to this information unless they ask you for background verification.
I believe that you have not received any official information about his joining a new organization, so it would not appear as official communication to notify them. This may raise questions about the company's intentions.
You should send a notice to the employee and ask them to follow the rules. In case of failure to comply, you may withhold his final settlement and other documents such as the relieving letter, experience letter, etc., or take any other necessary action.
Let other members also share their views.

Thank you so much, Tushar, for your help. We have already informed him twice, both telephonically and by a simple notice, but he has not replied. We are aware of his current company. Now, we are planning to take legal action against him, and we also want to send a copy of the same to his current organization. Therefore, I am seeking help on what should be included in the email that I intend to send to his current organization.

Hi,
Do you have any information about the reasons for his behavior? How long has it been since he absconded from your organization? Did your organization follow the statutory process for absconding employees, thereby terminating his employment? Send him notices by Registered Post and thereafter, in case of no response, please send him legal notices.
With regard to his current organization, you may contact the HR verbally and inform him that the employee was working with you, absconded, is terminated, and is showing no signs of settling his dues. Also indicate to him that your organization is possibly going ahead with legal action. Request that HR have a word with him to resolve this in 3 days or whatever a comfortable timeframe.
Hope this helps.
Regards

In many cases, possibly an employee or employer goes wrong, or both may go wrong. Then only does the dispute arise. It is always good to sort out the matter amicably, rather than legally, as it takes a long time, wastes time, energy, money, and the name of the company.

Dear Ginnia,
As the employee left along with company property without notice, please declare him as absconding and send him a registered post requesting him to return to the company with the property and surrender it. Failure to do so will result in a criminal complaint being filed against him for theft of company property and for absconding.
Thank you.

You can straight away ask or direct the concerned employee to surrender all company property to your Administration department forthwith. I presume a clause is already framed by you in the appointment letter issued to him in this regard. Give reference to that clause.
If he still does not respond, proceed to issue a legal notice, as suggested by the respected members of Citehr. If all your endeavors to retrieve the company property fail, then you may consider informing the current company where your employee is working.
