Dear Manjula,
First of all, before giving the warning letter, you need to issue a show cause for the act done by the employee. If the employee fails to respond or admits the mistake, then you may issue a warning letter to the employee.

Dear Manjula,
Please don't come directly on the warning letter. Maybe that employee has some urgent work, or he will try to connect with the HOD at a later time, but perhaps the HOD did not respond.
So, as a good HR professional, first discuss the matter with that employee. If he continues to repeat the same behavior, then you can take strong action against him.
Thank you.

Yes, my friend... When he does this repeatedly a few times, then there is an issue unless an oral warning is enough. A willfully dishonest person is easily traceable with his nasty behavior, so let's wait and watch, please. After all, these are our employees. Unknow.w ell Manila ji.

You can discuss with the concerned employee and advise him to strictly adhere to the rules of the company and also inform him repetition of of this type of misconduct will be punishable.

Dear Manjula,
The procedure is to call the employee first for an explanation as to why disciplinary action should not be taken against him for his misconduct. The warning letter is to be issued after receiving the explanation from the employee if the explanation is not found satisfactory.

Dear Manjula,
Good to see the inputs from our HR professionals. I opine that you need to obtain a written complaint from the HOD before initiating any process. The entire disciplinary process depends and starts from a written complaint from the immediate superior, and this is going to be very important. As mentioned by some of our professionals, first understand the circumstances wherein the employee was away from his workplace. If it is the first time, then it's better to make him understand the implications thereof and settle with an oral warning.
As an HR person, you need to understand the scenario thoroughly and assess the consequences. IR is a typical and challenging game; hence, you need to proceed with a structured game plan as every action will have a reaction and become a precedent. Therefore, you should be very cautious.
