Legally, you cannot withhold an employee's salary for work they have already completed, even if they leave without serving the notice period. However, if your employment contract clearly specifies a notice period and the consequences for failing to serve it, such as recovery of training costs or salary deductions, you can enforce those terms. You may deduct any agreed-upon amount in lieu of notice, but full non-payment could lead to legal disputes. Ensure that your contracts are well-drafted to protect your interests in such situations.
