Join at your own risk - werkgeversreview Applications Consultant bij Giesecke+Devrient

The employee, whom we hired for SAP consultant roles, left the Company abruptly before lunch on 16th Aug. He claimed that he had to attend to his child for the next 3 months who was in hospital and has not returned to office since then. His boss even offered to keep his position open for 3 months. We also told him that we would welcome him back to the office anytime within the three months once his child had recovered, with the condition that he was to provide sufficient proof. As per his employment contract with Company, either he or Company has to give 2 weeks’ notice or salary in lieu should either party decides to terminate the contract. Based on this termination clause, we withheld his 2 weeks’ salary as there was no sufficient proof. There was no wrong doing on our part, and we had clearly communicated to him on this matter. Nonetheless, though he had not really fulfilled the condition, we decided to release his salary on compassionate ground and close the case. We only came to know about his posting on 12 September and were deeply disappointed with his negative post. We hope his child has fully recovered by now and also wish him all the best in his future endeavors.
