Dear

RE: Failure to adhere to absence reporting procedures.
According to our records, you have been absent from work since
[add
date]. During
this time you have failed to contact the company to explain the reasons for your
absence.
I have tried several times to contact you via your
[telephone/mobile phone]
but
without success. Your unexpected and unexplained absence has caused
considerable difficulties for your [department/team/manager]. We are also concerned
for your personal wellbeing and whereabouts.
As you know, you are required to notify the company by
[add time]
on the first day of
any absence from work
[or as soon as is reasonably
practicable]. If the reason for
your absence is illness, you are also required to provide the company with a
[self
certificate/Doctor’s certificate]
after
[add number of days]
days.
I therefore require you to contact me on
[add telephone number]
as a matter of
urgency by
[add appropriate time and date]
to inform me of the reason for your
absence and give me some indication of when you are likely to return to work.
The company regards your current absence from work as an unauthorised, unpaid
absence, in contravention of the company’s absence reporting procedures. You
should be aware that the company views unauthorised absence, without good cause,
as
[serious/gross]
misconduct, which may result in disciplinary action being taken
against you, including
[summary]
dismissal.
Yours sincerely
