Hi, This has nothing to do with warning letter. Either you should get NDA signed by the employee on resignation or add Non- Solicitation & Non-Competition clause in the Appointment Order.

If you have a legal or human resources department, it's advisable to consult with them before issuing any formal communication. Here's a basic template:

  • If any employee has joined your client company or a competitor, how can you restrain him? Or if somebody is about to join your client company, how can you stop him from joining? So long as they are with your organization, you can warn them or take action for any misconduct. But once they leave, the contract of employment comes to an end, and they are free to join any organization of their choice. Even an agreement that they will not join a competitor will be void because it would violate section 27 of the Contract Act. There are several verdicts which state that an agreement extending beyond employment is invalid. The Supreme Court in Superintendence Co. of India v. Krishan Murgai (AIR 1980 SC 1717) ruled that a service covenant extending beyond the termination of service is void.
