Dear Friend,
Your query is not clear regarding the status of an employee whom you want to terminate services due to unauthorized absence. Merely being absent without authorization for one month is not sufficient grounds for the termination of a permanent employee's services.
Did you provide any notice to the employee asking for an explanation? Did the employee respond to such a letter? What is the employee's employment status - permanent, trainee, or probationer? The termination of an employee depends on their status. The services of trainees, probationers, or contract workers can be terminated by giving one month's notice or payment in lieu of notice if outlined in the appointment letter, for reasons such as misconduct or unauthorized absence.
However, for regular employees, the standard procedure of issuing a charge sheet, conducting an inquiry, sending a final show-cause notice, and issuing a dismissal order is required to be followed in line with the principles of natural justice.
