Earned Leave Calculation If Outcome Is Fraction?

Garima Khare
if total present days is 298 and as per rule devided by 20
=298/20=14.9
then what to consider 14 or 15 earned leave.
=292/20-14.6 it should be 14.5 or 14
Please suggest me proper way to calculate earned leave if it comes in proportion.

I'm giving you the suggession based on my company procedure.
1. 14.9 days will be considered as 14.5
2. 14.6 days will be considered as 14.5
3. 14.4 days will be considered as 14
4. 15.1 days will be considered as 15

As per section 79 sub secton 4of the Factories Act any fraction of half day shall be calculated as one full day and any fraction less than half a day shall be ignored

Mr Sarvanan,
Your calculation procedure is contrary to the provisions and it is better to take corrective measures as rightly advised by PRATEEKSHAA above.

It is not the present days of an employee its period of work which means the weekly off and or any holiday has to be counted. Further as advised by seniors above any fraction of half day and above are treated as full day, and any fraction below half day has to be nullified.

As per the suggessions I can do the changes.
But, my company is not governed under "Factories Act".
"Shops & Establishment Act" doesn't say about the fractions. Let me know the exact act, so that I can make the necessary changes.

Every fraction of 0.5 and above has to be rounded off to the next higher digit. Fraction up to 0.4 can be ignored in counting.

The Shops and Establishment Act may be silent about the fraction but the days can be calculated to the nearest rounding off which is globally acceptable practice. Factories Act can be used as case study
