The Shop and Office Act is designed to protect employees not employers.The employer's position is very weak in this situation. Unless the person has caused you financial loss, you can't claim compensation for VoP. Even if the person has caused financial loss, you have to file a civil case, which will be more costly for you. If there are financial losses to the company, you can get a court order to recover it from the employee's EPF. But this is very rare.Adding a clause in the agreement is pointless. Even if you add a clause saying the employee must pay compensation to the company for leaving without notice, they can still contest it in courts. The important part is you MUST prove that the employee who vacated the post caused you a financial loss.There's one common mistake most employees do. They hold a company asset such as a laptop with them. This can be argued as theft and used as evidence to prove that the employee was not acting in good faith.</blockquote>
