Hi all,
I need an opinion regarding an old and hardworking employee who has been with the company for more than 10 years. For the past few years, he has been unwell due to some health issues, specifically dealing with intestine problems that are not in a state to recover.
As a company, we have supported him in all aspects - financially, morally, job security, and made leave adjustments for a long time. We even manage his work hours from home. However, the management is now asking to make a final decision as this situation cannot be sustained for more than 5 years. There are limitations in each segment that need to be considered to settle this situation, especially since he is the sole source of income for his family.
In the future, he will require financial support for medical assistance. On humanitarian grounds, we have acted in his favor and continue to do so, but this cannot continue indefinitely.
Thank you.

Looking at the situation he is in, you can work out a liberal full and final settlement package. In addition, you can support him by persuading your supplier to appoint him as their agent or use him as your agent to deal with some special customers or other assignments which he can handle mainly from home, with very limited requirements to come to the workplace. Your efforts to support him as a humanitarian gesture are well appreciated.
