Hey Y'all,

Hope you all are doing great. I have a confusion which I need to clear. Actually, I have sent the termination email to an employee with the attachment of a termination letter. The employee doesn't want the tag of termination on his career. Now, we have another option, which is the normal resignation, and I have no issues with proceeding with normal resignation.

My question here is: Should I email him first, mentioning that his termination has been reversed, or should he email me with the resignation email asking to consider it as a normal resignation and remove the tag of termination?

Please answer as per the study and HR practice. What is the actual procedure in this case?

Considering the future career, it is better to accept his resignation first and withdraw the termination letter issued to him. Issue him a simple relieving letter based on his resignation letter, with a waiver of the notice period if any, required under the terms and conditions of employment.

Alright. So according to you he should first send me the resignation email requesting to accept that. Right? Then I will proceed with further procedure.

Hi,

Please collect a request letter or email from the employee regarding the receipt of the termination letter. Additionally, the employee should request the management to accept their apology and facilitate a proper relieving process.

To safeguard your organization, it is advisable to include a reference to the termination in the above-mentioned letter. In the event of any future verification for the said employee, the reason for relieving can be presented as a resignation. Please note that the reversal of termination is an internal matter for filing purposes.

Management can consider resignation in lieu of termination, provided the case is not a severe kind of misconduct. The management forfeits the gratuity and bonus payable to the employee on termination of service than on resignation.

You should verify the case at your end. If there are no existing financial implications, then call the person to take his resignation letter and other written signed papers as you feel is right for the case to avoid future complications.

Termination is provided due to the severe gravity of the offense, referring to the company's code of conduct. Any financial goodwill may be forfeited when an employee has reached the end of the contract.

Resignation normally comes from an employee deciding they no longer want to be in service with the company.

Advice to resign is given by the company's decorum/HR for various reasons to protect somebody's integrity, and this is an internal or discreet measure.
