Hi experts:
The management is currently facing a situation involving three employees: the Manager, Supervisor, and Workman. Both the Supervisor and Workman have submitted their resignations, which have been accepted. However, before their relieving dates, significant financial irregularities were uncovered by the management, and both resigned individuals have admitted to their involvement in these irregularities. In light of these developments, the management intends to retract their resignations as internal investigations are underway to assess the extent of the financial loss.
Kindly suggest:
Supervisor and workman
1) Is there any legal issue involved if we withdraw the resignation before relieving based on the financial irregularities detected?
2) Since they have confessed the guilt, after issuing a show cause notice, can we dismiss them and also lodge a police complaint?
Manager:
Dismiss him by invoking the clauses of his appointment letter which permit dismissal in abnormal circumstances after show cause notice, and also lodge a police complaint.
Kindly suggest. We do not propose any inquiry as they have already accepted the charge. Any precaution other than inquiry? Should we pay their gratuity or forfeit after show cause notice?
