this error is actually caused by an 'internal server error' thrown by an asynchronous javascript. To see this error much clearly, you can throw a response about the error to the web browser console, see below.

echo "<script>console.log(". $response .");</script>";

What the error is simply saying is that the asynchronous call made did not get any response from the PHP script it called.

When you call property of an variable that not object (maybe null, string or other types), this error has been occured. In this code you try to get date_of_leaving property of $employee->Profile and $employee->Profile is not object. So you can check object has that property by calling property_exists function:

$status = (property_exists($employee, 'Profile') && property_exists($employee->Profile, 'date_of_leaving') && $employee->Profile->date_of_leaving == null) ? '<span class="label label-success">active</span>' : '<span class="label label-danger">in-active</span>';

And this line:

(property_exists($employee, 'Profile') && property_exists($employee->Profile, 'employee_code') && $employee->Profile->employee_code != '') ? $employee->Profile->employee_code : 'Not assigned' ,

This error is due to having no data in database but you are trying to fetch it so you need to check it's null or not in each one. I think this code help you.

$status = (($employee->Profile) && ($employee->Profile->date_of_leaving)) ? 
           '<span class="label label-danger">in-active</span>' : 
           '<span class="label label-success">active</span>';

The error you mentionned tell us that you're trying to get a property of a variable which is not an object.

The line of code which produces the error is : ($employee->Profile->date_of_leaving == null)

Both $employee and $employee->Profile could return null but in your code, just before this line, you wrote : $designation = $employee->Designation; which would have failed if $employee was not an object.

By elimination $employee->Profile is the reasons why you script fails. It may is not set or not an object :)
