Dear Sirs/Veterans,
Have practical question on N & F holidays.
Question - If an employee [permanent worker or CL] is absent without permission on previous and post day of a national or festival holiday which falls in between, then will he be eligible to be paid for that national or paid holiday? Plz note absent without permission days won't be payable days for him irrespective of he has leave balance or not.
Currently most of the industries are following the practice that if above scenario occurs then that worker won't be paid wages for national or festival holiday, logic being why should he get benefit for that day if he was absent on previous and next day also of N & F day. I just want more clarity on whether this is correct practice and in future there won't be any negative legal implication because of it.
