Dear Fellow Members,
My organization is stuck in a peculiar situation. One permanent worker has been absent since Oct 2020.
Initially he stated that he has a medical issue and used to contact HR regularly with his health updates and medical reports.
However, over the last 8 months or so, he has stopped contacting HR and also stopped picking up our calls. We have sent him 3 letters by registered post AD asking him to report to work. While all three letters have been received (we have the acknowledgement cards) he has neither responded to any nor reported back to work.
I know we have erred in handling this case; but my question is what can we now do about him? Can he be terminated as absconder? What more need to be done by us to have him struck off our rolls?
Please advice.
Regards
Arun
