Considering Only Earned Leave in Bangalore: What's the Minimum Allowance Needed?

I am planning to make EL the only category of leave, instead of PL, CL, and SL. What is the minimum allowance that I have to adhere to for the Bangalore location? Kindly advise.

Hi Venugopal,

If your employer comes under the purview of the Shops and Establishment Act, then you need to follow the leave provisions stipulated by the Act.

Dear Lakshminarayanan,

Thank you for your input. The organization is categorized under the Karnataka S&E Act, which mentions SL as 12 (During the first twelve months of continuous service), Earned / Privileged Leave as 18 with a maximum carry forward of 30 days, and CL as NA.

1. Can the leaves be maintained under one category, or do PL and SL need to be maintained separately?

Please let me know if you need any further clarification.

Thank you.

You have to follow the act since your organization is covered under the Shops and Establishments Act.
