Hi! I am currently working in a small private hospital in Bangalore. The question I have is regarding leave policy and deduction as a result of. Currently, there is no leave given to any of the staff (medical & non-medical) except 1 weekly off (usually Sunday). Even festivals & national holidays are working days unless they fall on our weekly off. If anyone takes leave for whatsoever reason then pay is deducted and is calculated as follows = Net salary / no of days in the day * no of days off. When I checked with the owners, they cite Essential Services Act as the reason.
My question is are these practices ok given that hospitals come under Essential Services Act or there is room for improvement. Being a manager here, I am really stuck between unhappy employees and owners. I am looking for measures that we can implement to benefit all. Kindly suggest the same.
