How to Calculate Extra Notice Days for Employee X Due to Leave During Notice Period?

Calculating Additional Notice Days for Employee X

Please suggest if Employee X has served his notice period and has taken sandwich leave during this time. As per our organization's rule, no leave is allowed during the notice period; it will be considered as a loss of pay (LOP), and the notice period will be increased accordingly. My question is, how should we calculate the additional notice days? Should it be based on the reduced number of days or considering the LOP?

For instance, Employee X has 9 LOP days, including 4 sandwich leave days. As per the resignation letter, the notice period is supposed to end on May 18th. Please provide details on how many extra working days he needs to extend beyond May 18th, 2019.

Hi,

Most companies do not encourage taking leave during the notice period. In your case, the extension should be for the number of days of leave availed by the employee only, excluding any in-between holidays (sandwich leave). Additionally, the general practice followed by companies is to either extend the notice period or deduct the number of days of leave availed as Loss of Pay (LOP), not both.
