How to Address Employees Filing Half-Day Leave for Full-Day Work?

Good Day All,

How can I write a memo to my employees not to file half-day leave because the regular working day is a whole day, but sometimes we only take half a day due to fewer orders in manufacturing/production staff, and we let them leave whenever they are done? Some staff consider it a half day even without their presence, and the next day they file it as a half-day emergency/sick leave, which is supposed to be a whole day.

Thank you

Understanding Labor Laws and Policy Amendments

Largely, members of this forum are from India. Therefore, you could receive replies that fall within the purview of Indian labor laws. So, my first question is: are you from India? If not, then you need to follow the labor laws of your country.

Policy Amendment vs. Memo Issuance

Secondly, instead of issuing a memo, you need to amend your policy and circulate it to all staff members. Finally, if you believe that issuing a memo will serve the purpose, you may upload the draft, and some senior staff may offer help to correct it.

Thanks,
