Hi Joshi,
Most Standard Companies follow the practice of sending OFFER LETTER / APPTT.ADVICE letter after the person is selected informing him of his apptt., designation, salary package, joining Date etc., to enable the person to resign from existing Co. & join new Co. by the Date fixed with the Relieving letter.
The apptt. Order with detailed terms & conditions of employment, Rules, Regulations, Reporting, Notice Period, Compensation package (3 to 5 pages) etc., is issued on joining along with S.O.,/ Service Rules, Leave Rules etc., so that the HR Dept. ensure that the person joins & all formalities of issuing Apptt.Order, induction is done after joining.
When A.Order was issued in advance of joining, some persons doesnt join and it becomes a waste exercise for HR Dept.,
The above practice of 1st sending Offer Letr., on Selection and then issuing detailed Appt.Order on joining of the person can be followed as a general practice.
Request the Cite HR Members to comment on the practice please.
