Dear All,
I am seeking your suggestions regarding the encashment of earned leave. I am in the process of leaving my current company, and according to our personnel manager, I am not permitted to utilize my earned leave during the notice period. Consequently, my earned leave will expire, and in line with company policy, it will not be possible to encash it either.
I would appreciate clarification on the following points:
1. Is the encashment of earned leave subject to company rules and policies?
2. Is there any potential recourse through legal avenues?
Thank you in advance to all those who respond.
