Hello,

Under the Factories Act, there is no stipulation for granting PAID HOLIDAYS (distinctly different from and in addition to EL, SL, etc.) at all. Under the Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, the establishment has to declare 15th January, 1st May, and 2nd October each year as PAID HOLIDAYS (distinctly different from and in addition to EL, SL, etc.).

Normally and logically, when the establishment is closed, what would the Temporary Employees and the Contract Labour do in the establishment? What happens if any employee is required to work on any of these days is also provided under the act, but I would request you to make an effort and find it from the bare act itself. That will speed up the process of your self-sufficiency!

Hello All,

In my post of 20th December, I made a factual error. Kindly ignore that response. The correct position at law is that under Sec35(4), the following four days have to be treated as PAID HOLIDAYS: 26th January, 1st May, 15th August, and 2nd October each year. The proviso to the same section also provides that if an employee is required to work on any of these days, he will have to be paid Overtime Wages at twice the average wages, AND he will also have to be given a paid holiday on any other day.

I regret having posted incorrect and incomplete information in my earlier post of 20th December!

The national holidays are paid holidays, and provision is also made in the act for working on these days. However, we need to take prior permission from the concerned authorities in advance.

National Holidays and Work Permissions

The national holidays—Republic Day, May Day, Gandhi Jayanti, and Independence Day—are paid holidays. In case of needing to work on these days, we must obtain prior permission from the concerned authorities at least 48 hours in advance.

Dear All,

Kindly suggest to me. In my industry, contract labor is working at heights for painting tasks. Although we have provided all necessary safety materials, the laborer did not utilize them and unfortunately passed away in an accident. I have informed both the factory inspector and the local police station about the incident. Now, the issue of compensation with the contractor has arisen.

Please provide your suggestions on how to proceed in this matter.

Dear Member,

Central or State Governments declare holidays for the calendar year for the public offices, while we are to declare and grant these national and festival holidays for the workers/employees as per the State Shops and Establishment Act or the State Industrial Establishment (National and Festival Holidays and Casual and Sick Leaves) Act, whichever is applicable in your case.

May day is not a national holiday. Even central government offices are working, In Maharashtra, may 1 is maharashtra day, which is a. State holiday.
