Employee Leave Calculation After Probation: How Do You Handle It for the Rest of the Year?

Dear Members,

How do we calculate the leaves of an employee if his probation period is complete? Suppose the employee is confirmed in the month of September, then how many leaves will be added to his account for the remaining year of leave record?

Leave and confirmation are not related.

In a factory-type organization, an employee becomes eligible for leave only after working for 240 days in the preceding 12 months or, for those who joined during the year, a minimum of 20 days in a month. The leave entitlement is independent of probation and confirmation. This means that even if an employee is not confirmed, they should receive paid leave if they have met the minimum service requirement for the year.

Leave regulations in shops or commercial establishments

In a shop or commercial establishment, leaves are regulated by the state Acts governing such establishments. According to various state Acts, a new probationary employee is entitled to 12 days each of casual and sick leave for the first 12 months. Similarly, after completing 12 months of service, they are entitled to 12 days of earned leave. This can also be calculated as one day for every 20 days worked in the previous year. Nonetheless, the leave entitlement does not depend on the employee's status. For earned leave/paid leave, the sole qualifying condition is that the employee must have completed 12 months of service.
