No resign letter sent till date

A person had joined pharmaceutical company as a Area Sales manager in Dec.2009. He took leave for his marriage for some days in Feb.2011.but, because of some conditions he had to take more leaves. But, his manager had denied to grant more leave orally, not on paper and he forced to employee to resign. now, the employee had not given resign letter to company but had not worked since Feb.2011 till date.The employee had no received any notice nor termination letter from the company till date. The person is still employee of that company? Is it company's duty to send notice if employee remain absent for long days? The company has right to appoint new employee in place of him? What should the employee legally do against the company?

The employee should  have:

--continued to submit leave application.

--should have complained to good offices of appointing authority, MD, with a copy to Head-HR that his reporting authority has ordered him to resign and thus give up his employment on dated by making a phone call from phone number.....at his phone number.........while he was on leave due to his marriage.

Marriage is such an occasion many of the employees would feel like extending the leave. However employee should adhere to leave rules.Let the manager decline to sanction the leave application in writing. Usually the manager shall resort to verbal mode of communication on his own or under instructions.

In all probabilities manager's report is filed in personnel file of the employee and employee is  diclared absent/absconding.

Employee can request the good offices to allow him to examine his personnel file kept at HO.

Company might have mentioned in appointment letter, standing orders termination can be caused in case of prolonged absence.

Some of the employees have tried by becoming member of FMRAI ( MR has to recommend) and invoke ID.

In all probabilities company won't take back the employee. Employee can negotiate to tender notice of resignation( avoid abrupt termination or company shall deduct notice pay) and positive issuance of acceptance of resignation,work experience/service certificate/relieving letter without any adverse comments, positive reference check,form 16,FNF settlement and payment of dues, PF number, attested copies of PF withdrawal/transfer forms. Both parties shall be at peace and avoid litigation.
