Letter to an employee who has not returned as planned from annual leave

This Letter to an employee who has not returned as planned from annual leave should be used when an employee has failed to return to work after a period of annual leave and has not made contact to explain the reason for the absence.

In these circumstances, the employer should try to contact the employee about the unauthorised absence. Any unauthorised absence would be unpaid and, if appropriate, treated as a serious disciplinary matter on the employee’s return to the workplace. The letter advises the employee to contact the employer as soon as possible and advises the employee that unauthorised absence is a potential gross misconduct matter.
