Thank you, Mr. J.N. Modi, for your valuable comments. Now I have posted the Form XVI, XVII, and XXIII of the Contract Labour Act. You can make use of it and supply it to all our friends too.

Clarification on Earned Leave Encashment Under Labor Laws

Whether earned leave encashment is permissible under labor laws or not, I need clarification on this with supporting judgments if any passed in the judicial courts.

Normally, the workmen are engaged on a temporary basis. For them, the weekly off is paid based on their attendance, as the monthly wages are divided by 26 days and paid for the number of days present. Hence, the weekly off is paid along with equated daily wages. If they work on Sundays, the wages will be paid double the amount.

Furthermore, they are eligible for Leave Wages at the time of retrenchment, resignation, termination, retirement, or dismissal. Whatever the circumstance may be, they must be paid one day's wages for every completed 20 working days they have worked.
