Hi Professionals,
Can anyone please guide on the issue of what legal measures a company can take to protect its own interests from new employees who leave the company within a couple of days of joining without serving the notice period, even after receiving their appointment letter which specifies a 15-day notice period from either side?
Thanks.

First of all, hire people only after careful checks - close look at CV, references, previous company relieving letter/certificate. Once taken on board, fix your salary structure and bonuses in a manner that bonuses will fall due only after 6 months of good measured service. Also, see whether the employee is leaving the company or the manager. This may be a reason for leaving - poor or biased supervision. Legal remedy in terms of civil court is there but is so time-consuming that it is not worth the time or effort. Do not give a relieving letter to such employees who leave without notice. You can even mark him/her as no rehire in your documents. Finally, to conclude - you cannot really stop someone who wants to go, but if someone is so desperate, then it is better to let go.
