Departmental enquiry after releiving

If the employe has been releaved upon resignation, and all his dues have been settled, then there is hardly much scope of any domestic enquiry. 

 

If the enquiry was already intiated against the employee, and if he has resigned after initiation of enquiry, such enquiry can be continued provided that the company has rejected the resignation on the plea that domestic enquiry is onging. 

employe has been releaved upon resignation, and all his dues not settled. But enquiry was not contemplated at the time of reliving. It is already three months since employee is officially relivied

please give full facts of the case.

During 23 Nov 16 and 4 Jan 17 Painting work was done. The Employee did not maintain any register of daily wages but signed by the bills. The bills were also signed by the Chairman and the Secretary (approving authority) and payment was made. The labor charges paid are twice that of material.

Some documents were given to him to hand over to advocate. He handed over and collected back same day on pretext of copying it for the office but never returned it to advocate.

His duties were never given in writing nor there is any documentary evidence of taking the documents from advocate

He resigned on jan 3 17 citing personal reasons and we accepted his resignation and releived him on 5 jan 17.

There does not look any scope for initiating a domestic enquiry, espcially at this belated stage. I also think that you won't be able to prove the charges in the enquiry too.

Instead try to sit across the table and get the documents that you want and suprped amount if any and close the matter.

Win Win situation for both.
