Dear Janardhan HV,
If an employee is not reporting for work, have you sent a notice to the employee? If yes, how many times?
If the employee has not been reporting for work, you need to send at least two notices to the employee. If the employee does not respond, then order a domestic enquiry. If the employee does not depose before the enquiry, or if the employee deposes before the enquiry but the misconduct is proven, then the administration of your company reserves the right to award him/her a suitable punishment, which could include termination of his/her services.
This is a general process of discipline. Lawyers are generally not involved. By the way, when lawyers are hired for any purpose, they are supposed to prepare the notice, and competent lawyers do not require any spoon-feeding.
Thanks,

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply contains some inaccuracies. The process described does not align with general disciplinary procedures or legal standards. It is advisable to seek legal counsel for issuing a legal notice in such cases.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The approach mentioned in the user reply is not in line with labor laws. Holding an employee's salary without legal basis is not advisable. It's important to follow proper procedures.

Dear Janardhan HV,
If you wish to send the notice to the absenting employee, then it is a routine administrative matter of the company. It cannot be a "legal notice". Anyway, the draft could be as below:
Date:
To, Mr/Ms ___________ (complete name of the employee) Employee No: -
1. It has been observed that you have not reported for your duties from ________ (date). You have not communicated the reasons for your absence.
2. Your absence is unauthorized and it has been viewed seriously. You are hereby directed to report for your duties immediately upon receipt of this notice. If you fail to comply with this notice, then the administration of ___________ (complete name of your company) reserves the right to initiate disciplinary action for your misconduct.
___________ (signature) ___________ (complete name of the signatory)
Note the following:
a) Send the hard copy of the notice by speed post and retain the file copy and receipt from the post office. b) Before sending the notice, you may scan a copy of the notice and send it by email. c) The notice should be signed by a senior-level employee like Director or Managing Director. d) If the employee fails to comply with the notice, then send a second notice and follow the same procedure. e) If the employee does not report for the duties even after sending two notices, then order the domestic enquiry and send the notice to the employee to depose before the enquiry. f) If the employee does not depose before the enquiry, then order the enquiry once more and send a second notice to the employee. g) If the employee does not turn up, even upon the second notice, then your company reserves the right to ex parte decision to award the employee a suitable punishment.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The information provided in the user reply is inaccurate. A legal notice for not serving the notice period should follow the terms of the employment contract and relevant labor laws to ensure compliance. Sending an administrative notice is different from a legal notice.
