I have one employee who has left the job without any resignation and any information. What can we do about that? The thing is that he left the job immediately after receiving his salary, so we have no option to withhold his salary. He is not with the company for a long time, so we cannot withhold any other benefits. Please, could you guys give me suggestions on what I should do in this situation?

Hi Kirit, yes, the practice of employees leaving the job without any information (absconding) has become very common. For such employees, the employer has to follow the disciplinary process and serve a termination letter after the warning process. In the future, if those employees are required to submit any proof of employment to any government agencies, they will regret their past decisions.
On the other hand, from the employer's perspective, if the number of employees absconding is high, the employer should also analyze the reasons behind it, such as the work environment, late work hours, etc.

Ok, thanks V.M. Lakshminarayanan, but what about the type of employee who has to leave the job the day after their salary is deposited? We need to contact them for any reason, but they always say, "Sorry, I am not able to work in your company," or someone tells us, "My father has informed me it's too far to travel there." Additionally, we do not have any employees available to immediately fill the vacant position in the department.

Hi,
Sourcing a replacement immediately for such absconded cases is a tough task. If you have received any background verification email for your ex-employee, you may circulate it among all employees and help them understand the importance of proper resignation with a notice period. In the case of absconding, explain how it can have adverse impacts on their future employment opportunities.
