Hello. I work for an IT company with 30 employees.

1. I would like to know if there are specific or mandatory leave rules for IT companies.
2. Is the categorization of Casual, Sick, and Earned leave mandatory?
3. Does an IT company come under the Karnataka Shops and Establishments Act?

I would highly appreciate your responses.

Thanks and regards,
Christina

Hi Jeevarathnam,

Thank you for your reply. I am unable to ascertain from the Karnataka Shops and Establishment Act whether the categorization of Casual, Sick, and Privilege Leave is mandatory. Could you please provide clarification on this matter?

Hi As per any govt rules there is no any rules for CL or SL. In consideration with employee welfare management shall define leave policies. It doesn’t mean as it is mandatory.
