Sanwiched Holiday Between Leaves

Hi Nilendera
You are right, no CL/SL can be clubbed with PL. In most of the companies including some govt sector this rule is followed. If you take a leave prior to and after a holiday then holiday is counted.

Dear All,
Can anyone clarify the Section 79 & 80 of The Factories Act, 1948, where it is cclearly mentioned that any Weeklyoff/ Holiday lies an betwwen the PL/EL, will not be trated as leave.
Pls clarify the same.

Dear Shweta,

An organisation can either have calendar days' leave or working days' leave.

If an organisation follows the calendar day leave policy, then any weekly off or holiday falling within leaves is added to the leave. That is,

1. EL/PL + weekly off/holiday + EL/PL = weekly off/holiday is considered as EL/PL and included in leave

2. CL/SL + weekly off/holiday + CL/SL = weekly off/holiday is considered as CL/SL and included in leave.

If weekly offs/holidays fall at the beginning or end of the leave period, however, organisations' policies either add such offs/holidays to the leave, or not, depending on the policy they prefer. But the organisation policy must be clear on this point, whichever practice is decided upon.

On the other hand, if an organisation follows the working day leave policy, then irrespective of how many weekly offs/holidays fall within the leave period, they are not counted. Only the working days falling within the leave period are counted. This is so in all types of leave. Public offs/holidays falling at the beginning/end of the leave will also not be counted as leave.

I hope this is clear.

as already pointed out leave rulea vary frm co. to co. and rules prevalent will be applicable in yr case.
however i am giving belowsolution based on govt. of india rules on various type of leave
case 1 leave---------holiday--------sick leave
a) intervening holiday is counted as leave fr earned leave and commuted leave
b)intervening leave will be counted as commuted leave(sick leave )can only be combined with earned leave and not casual leave
c)however if casual leave is taken fr both days then only 2 days leave
case 2 leave--------holiday any ---------leave
a)if casual leave taken then 2 days
b)if earned leave taken then 3 days

Hi all,
Also I have a query in this regard. Please clarify in this situation...
Case 1 : CL...........Holiday............CL
Case 2 : Absent........Holiday/Sunday........Absent
If any employee, who has not leave (EL/CL) balance in his account, entertains leave in case 2, then what should be done ? Can he be treated as absent for all three days ?
And what In case 1, if employee is applying for his last two CL ? In our establishment factory act is applicable.
Regards.
Rajesh.

In both cases, if the leave is not on working days, then the intervening holiday/weekly off would be counted as and included in leave.
If the employee has two days' CL to his credit, then the intervening holiday would also be counted as leave.
If the leave is on working days, then in both cases, only the working days would be considered as leave, i.e. 2 working days only.

Hi,
i think that if he don't have any balance of EL/CL , then i think he should be marked leave without pay
Correct me if i am wrong.
Thanks for all the responses.

You can either prefix or postfix with a holiday or weekends. This is generally the rule some co follow.
There are exeptions who will take is as a leave including or excluding the weekend.
Generally this is in place to avoid the employees going on long leaves after holiday period and not reporting as and when promised.
Nice question...
should bring in some more issues and scenario's .......

Hi all,
It will be based on the leave policies of each company. As per our company leave policy if a Holiday/Sunday is coming in between SL,EL & LOP, it will be treated as leave.

Havnt been thru the entire thread except the first few posts..this wat it SHUD be:
1. Holiday - Sunday- Leave : 1 day leave
2.SL/PL - holiday - SL/PL - 3 days of SL/PL : holiday simply doesnt get counted
3. Holiday- leave- Holiday : this is tricky..my co deducts 2 days saying that it an off preceded as wel as succeeded by a leave shall be counted as 2 and not 1 :cry:
eg: 24 dec is monday..so if I bunk the office on that day, i will be hit for two days as 23/dec is a sunday and 25/dec is xmas holiday...this shall very from co to co offcourse
4. if a holiday is either preceded or succeded by PL/SL/CL/LWOP same shall not incl in leave and granted as holiday only...
this is a good execrcise...i think i shall work on this today..chalo, aaj ke liye kuchh kam mil gaya... :P
