1. If an adult, one day for every twenty days of work performed by him during the previous calendar year;

2.If a child, one day for every fifteen days of work performed by him during the previous calendar year

Explanation 1 . -For the purpose of this sub-section-

a) Any days of layoff, by agreement or contract or as permissible under the standing orders;

b) In the case of a female worker, maternity leave for any number of days not exceeding twelve weeks; and

The leave earned in the year prior to that in which the leave is enjoyed, shall be deemed to be days on which the worker has worked in a factory for the purpose of computation of the period of 240 days or more, but he shall not earn leave for these days.
