As per the provisions of the Factories Act, only the working days will be considered. For every 20 working days putin, one day with pay, will be allowed, provided if employee puts in a minimum of 240 days during the calendar year.

To make employee eligible to earned leave, off days like weekly off, holidays including both National and Festival, any leaves taken during the calendar year including employment injury.
