Hi TS and other members,
Considering the above scenario,
Morally I feel the company is at fault, however since the candidate never made it upto employment, there is no logical reason for notice period / or even for compensation of some kind.
Nevertheless, the candidate obviously resigned from his first job and was ready to move out for the new offer; he can be stuck now!
Not every organisation (PEOPLE) understand that when an employee resigns there must be some additional benefits which made him take the step, and when we talk about withdrawing one's resignation, that is simply just costing the candidate more!
Losing credibility.
My query,
- You mentioned that the candidate COULD BE right only at a few occassions! Do ethical bindings / morals have no room in such a trial?
- While any candidate accepts offer, is it fair & possible that a compensation related clause be demanded by the candidate to be included only to protect the his / her interest in case such events occur which are not in favour of company.
- It is also possible that the employer may ask for a NO-SHOW compensation from the candidate which seems fair!
Regards
