I’m an Hr executive in a software company. One of my employees (under probation period) went on an uninformed leave for 5 days on a critical time of completion of a project. When we tried to call him to his mobile & residence number, he didn’t pick the call. We thought he was absconded. We had a bad time that week losing 1000$ & breakup with the client for not completing the project on time. On the 6th day that guy came back to work, he said that he went to his friend’s marriage to outstation wontedly without informing coz he very well knew that leave will not be allotted by his TL in that critical time. His way of irresponsible behavior irritated everyone & we decided to terminate that employee immediately. He reacted very badly & didn’t felt guilty about his mistake. And now that guy wants to spoil our company’s name by positing some bad reviews on net from outside.
Could somebody suggest us what actions can be taken on him or how to handle this issue?
