Dear seniors, I work in a small company as HR. The company had appointed an EVP of Sales & Corporate Affairs. Due to mismanagement and misappropriation, the company held him responsible for many financial issues. The company incurred significant operational losses due to decisions made by him. Now, without a notice period, this individual has joined another company. However, the company had not issued any formal appointment letter to him.
In these circumstances, the company wishes to write a letter to the new company where he has joined. The letter should outline the descriptions of the misappropriation of money committed by him. Your advice on the contents to be included in the letter to the new company is appreciated. This communication will serve as a notification to the company that they have hired the wrong person without verifying his past details.
Thank you.

Hi, For such senior levels like EVP, why is an appointment order not issued? In the absence of an appointment order, how can you blame him for not serving the notice period? Was anything discussed with that EVP about the separation clause?
Anyway, you may write a letter stating that he left your company without any information and joined another, which amounts to dual employment. Please refer to the template below. You need to edit it as per your requirements.

Hello, Why did you hold his appointment letter? Do you have any right to do so? If there is no appointment letter or offer letter, then employment is deemed to be temporary in the eyes of labor law. How will you justify this? If you take any action, be ready for a reaction.

Dear Pundalik,
Upon discovering the misappropriation of funds by the senior employee, did you order a domestic enquiry? If so, was the enquiry conducted following the correct procedure, and was the accused given an opportunity to defend their case? If these steps were taken, has the blameworthiness been clearly established?
If a domestic enquiry was not conducted, then your accusations against the employee remain just allegations. What is the intended outcome of communicating these allegations?
Additionally, if your company failed to provide an appointment letter to the senior employee upon hiring, it inadvertently showcases a disorganized approach within your company. By not issuing an appointment letter, the employer failed to uphold their commitment. It seems contradictory that ethical conduct was only highlighted when the employee chose to leave voluntarily.
Without an appointment letter, what notice period are you referring to? Expecting employees to comply with verbal directives is akin to members of a crime syndicate following orders.
Regarding the employment of the senior employee by a new company, the decision to hire him was their prerogative. While a reference check from your company would have been prudent, it was overlooked. This highlights similarities in administrative approach between the two companies.
It is important to understand that dealing with a cunning individual requires caution as they are adept at concealing their actions. The incident underscores the importance of operating a formal organization within legal boundaries, with well-defined responsibilities and accountability. Organized companies have robust checks and balances to prevent fraud, and in the event of any wrongdoing, they resort to legal measures rather than public complaints.
Thank you,

Hi, Have you ever read the word "Ethics"?
1. You haven't issued an appointment letter to a senior person. This means there is no employment contract; hence, he does not seem to be an employee of your organization.
2. Business is volatile in nature. We have to make decisions based on the situation. Some decisions result in profit, while others lead to losses.
There is no need to write a letter to his employer; you may write to the ex-employee directly.

I would think very seriously about writing such a letter to the new employer. It could raise all sorts of legal ramifications, and by all accounts, your company is in enough financial mire to take on a court case as a result of being sued for libel.

Legal Binding and Notice Period
Read the whole case. There is no legal binding from both parties. Without an appointment, the newly hired employee is not bound to serve any notice to the company. For senior roles, the company should follow some standards (which your organization failed to accomplish). Hence, my suggestion would be not to raise the matter, as it could turn out negative for you and your organization.
