Understanding Leave Days: How Do Monday and Tuesday Off Affect Your Count?

If we take MONDAY & TUESDAY OFF after the fifth Saturday and Sunday, how many leave days will be counted? 4 or 2?

If your company is paying for 30/31 days of salary, then your week off (Sunday) is a paid week off. In this case, if you are present on Saturday and take leave on Monday and Tuesday, it will be considered a two-day leave. However, if you are absent on Saturday and take leave on Monday and Tuesday, then it will be a three-day leave.

If your company pays salary for 26 days by deducting the 4 weekly offs in a month, then even if you are present on Saturday and take leave on Monday and Tuesday, it will still be a two-day leave since your weekly offs are not paid.

Thank you.

Kindly go to the link - http://www.sharpfacility.com/Labour%...ablishment.pdf and scroll down to Section 35: Leave. The leave allowed to an employee under clauses (a) and (b) shall be inclusive of the day or days during the period of such leave, on which a shop or commercial establishment remains closed under sub-section (1) of section 18, or on which they are entitled to a holiday under sub-section (1) of section 24 or section 31.

This clearly means that if your Saturday is a working day, and you took leaves on Saturday, Monday, and Tuesday, your leaves to be counted shall be Saturday-Sunday-Monday-Tuesday, i.e., 4 days. I hope this clears your doubts.

If, however, you work 5 days a week and Saturday-Sunday are weekly offs, in such cases, Monday-Tuesday will be a 2-day leave. Hope your doubt was clarified.
