Understanding Paid Sundays: Are You Eligible If You Work Less Than a Full Week?

Hi, good morning to everyone.

I have a query related to paid Sunday. Can you please tell me the rules related to Sunday? If anybody works only for 3 days in a week and then Saturday-Sunday-Monday don't come, will Sunday be paid or not? What if in a week only 4 days come and Saturday-Sunday-Monday don't come then?

Please suggest only rules, not company policy, so we can apply these rules without any labor dissatisfaction.

Thanks,

How do you calculate one day's salary?

Do you use 26, or do you use the number of working days, or do you use the actual days in a month like 30, 31, 28, or 29? The policy depends on your response to this question. If interested, please respond.

If that is the case, intervening Sundays will be counted as leave.

Logic:
If you use 26 or the actual working days in a month, then weekly rest days are not paid days. So, deduction is already made, and you cannot deduct once again. If you pay based on actual days in a month, for example, 30, then the salary per day is calculated by using 30 as the denominator.

A person taking leave on Saturday and Monday cannot come on Sunday. To curtail misuse, we include intervening Sundays. If he takes leave up to Saturday and rejoins on Monday, you should pay for Sunday.

Hi,

If continuously Saturday, Sunday, and Monday are taken as leave or if absent, then Sunday is deductible.

Thank you.
