Action For Unauthorized Leave Taken By Employee. - DOC Download

Dear Ritu,
If Employee is on contract basis, then uninformed/ unauthorised leave for continuous period of 7 days "may" lead to termination.
But, retaining an employee is an important function of HR. So please communicate with the employee as to what led to take leave for 16 days and as the leave is taken for the death of her relative, let her write a letter stating the purpose and apologise for the inconvenience caused and also ensure that in future she will intimate in similar circumstances. Deduct the salary for the period of absence.

Dear Poulmai,
Mail you company HR the treatment reports of your husband and tell them that your husband needs you. However if your company still decides to take action against you, you tell them that you are ready to join the enquiry against you and take the reports of your husband in that enquiry. My experience says in case of such emergencies companies do not generally take extreme majors like termination. Send those reports to your Management and hope for the best.
