There have been lots of cases of employees leaving without even letting the company know officially. Where i used to work, one of our staffs lied that she was traveling for a family trip, only to find out she was actually working for another company. My boss was pretty furious but choose not to do anything. In such a case would you do?
How should an employer hand an employee leaving without proper notice

That is very bad even though a lot of people also do it here. The best thing is to tell your employer a month or a few weeks before you leave so that the workplace wouldn't be stranded or short of staff

Yes, even me myself i was not happy about it. Even when applying for the job, it is stated that you have to let the company know at least a month before leaving so that if there is anything the manager needs to put in place, he or she would be able to do that. Cases like that can even affect the work flow and force.
I think when an employee just leaves an organization like that, he or she is not happy with that organization and intentionally wants to hurt them. I think the organization should look inwards and examine if they are treating their staff right for them to leave like that.
This is actually very bad and a wicked act , that's why some company do delay employees salary till the beginning of another month and this might prompt anyone that wants to leave to ask for his salary by month end stating reasons.

True, this is also why some companies tend to go as far as making their employees sign a legal agreement where they can only leave if they have notified the company like a month or two before they would leave, cause some persons are just too wicked.

Exactly, they wont even try it. Before anyone would do something like this, i am pretty sure they would think carefully first. Cause this act is just plain wicked, especially in a situation where you are holding a very serious or sensitive position.
In my country there is a legal document which both side sing and if the worker leaves without a 3 month notice to the employer then they will get some legal punishment's and also the other work place need to have a leaving document from the old job in order to hire a worker.
You are right , so as not to lose on both sides, but at least as soon as they are sure they will get the job the right authorities should be involved and brought to their notice, some of them do this intentionally.

That's nice though, over here most companies do not even ask for this document before hiring, some don't even care about what you have done before coming to their company. Some of these people are even the one that would advise you to live and come over to their company if they see that you are good in what you do.
Yeah but they have to think that what if they were in this position, what will they do and how will they act if their skilled and professional worker leave their work without giving them a notice what will they say, that is what they need to think about.

I think this is the major issue, majority of them do think about this. They fail to realize that if these workers could do this to someone else, it means they have the ability to still do it to them later in the future when they find a more suitable place.
That is why they should be concerned when they hire a person from another company or work place without any notice to the previus employer, and for sure this will happen to the person who hires.
