More details to this question:
My employee had a valid L1 A visa from Oct 2019 till August 2022. However he never travelled to USA during this time owing to various reasons. Should we now reapply or apply for an extension ?

You will need to reapply at this stage, now that the initial petition has expired. Also, keep in mind that there are a number of different immigration documents with separate expiries that you need to keep tracking: (1) the visa label that is issued by the local US Consulate/Embassy, which is the employee's "entry ticket" to enter the USA; (2) the I-797 Approval Notice for the USCIS I-129 petition; and (3) the I-94 Admission Record that is issued to the employee upon entry to the USA.
