Hi, I am working as an HR in a software company. We have an employee who has some health issues. He gets frustrated easily and is under medication, but this situation is creating internal problems. He takes leaves without prior notice, which is affecting the project, and he shouts at coworkers for minor reasons. We have given him a lot of time, hoping he would improve, but now we have decided to give him a notice. Can anyone send me a format for this? It should be a polite explanation to the employee about his health condition and how it is affecting work due to his sudden absences.

He needs to be counseled by HR, and before issuing the letter, your company should decide whether his contribution to the organization is indispensable. You can opt for replacement, and normally this kind of behavioral matter will not be mentioned in the appointment letter. So, you need to discuss with him regarding his value to the organization and make him understand the situation he is undergoing, which is affecting both him and the organization.
Then, you should provide a letter briefly mentioning what is required from him and what actually happened, allowing him time to reply. Based on the letter, you can issue the temporary termination of employment or discontinuation of service once and for all, if you have a supporting clause in his appointment letter.

Dear Swapana, please consider providing some training or giving him a chance before issuing a warning letter. He is not well and needs your help. Discuss with your boss, sit together, and offer him an opportunity for further improvement. If that is not feasible, you may proceed with issuing a warning letter, followed by subsequent warnings, and then a final warning letter. Subsequently, in accordance with the terms of his employment contract, you can initiate the notice period and release him.

I agree with Mhmd and GBMK. It would be best to avoid putting such reasons in the letter, for it might come back on you in a court of law! If you have already sent it, you need to ensure that it hasn't become a precedent for the next one.
