How many CL and EL are allowed in one year for an employee who joined three years ago? For instance, if an employee started in January 2012 and worked 192 days until December 2012, how many CL and EL can be allocated?
In a separate scenario, if an employee began on 1st August 2012 and worked 80 days until December 2012, how many CL and EL should be provided?
Thank you.

Understanding Leave Policies: CL, SL, and Earned Leave
There is no constant rule for CL (Casual Leave), SL (Sick Leave), and Earned Leave applicability. Different companies follow different rules. However, please refer to the model standing orders of your company, which will help you obtain further information.
Normally, companies provide 6 CL and 6 SL per calendar year. If anyone joins in between, it will be calculated on a pro-rata basis. For the workmen category, for the first 180 days, 1 PL (Privilege Leave) is granted per 16 days of working (i.e., 15 PL for the first 180 days) and further 1 PL per 10 working days. All leave calculations are based on the calendar year.

This leave policy depends on the company policy. Generally, the company will provide 12 CL and 8 ML, and EL (Earned Leave) based on the total working days. Some companies will also offer PL, which depends on the number of working days.

If you are covered under the Factories Act, then Casual Leave (CL) should be a minimum of 7 days a year, and Earned Leave (EL) is calculated at 1 day for every 20 days actually worked. In a year, after accounting for weekly offs and festival holidays, the actual number of workdays would be about 300. If the concerned person has attended all the 300 days, then they would be eligible for EL of 15 days, which can be availed the subsequent year.

Understanding Leave Policies Based on Establishment Type
Mr. Sanjay has not mentioned the nature and type of his firm. If it's a commercial one, follow the Shops and Commercial Establishments Act of the state. If it is a factory, please note that it does not prescribe Casual Leave. The Negotiable Instruments Act does not allow for casual leave in any establishment.

- CL: 7
- EL: For 20 days - 1 day as EL (minimum working days required is 240 in a year to be eligible for EL).

Dear Professional,
The concept of 240 working days is the eligibility criteria for ELs. If the employee does not work for 240 days in a year (i.e., 12 months), they are not eligible for EL/PL in the following year.
Similarly, if an employee joins at any point in the calendar year, they become eligible for EL/PL once they have completed 2/3 of the total working days.
For instance, if a person joins on 01.08.2010, the total number of days to work in 2010 is approximately 125 days. If the person has worked around 80 days, they are eligible for 4 PLs in the next year. If the person works fewer than 80 days, they will not receive PLs in the following year.
I am also seeking information about CLs. Could you please specify the section under the Factories Act that addresses CLs?
Thanks & regards,

Understanding Leave Policies Under the Factory Act
Chapter VIII and Section 79 of the Factory Act discuss only Earned Leaves (ELs). However, Casual Leave (CL) and Sick Leave (SL) are based on local policy, which can differ from company to company. The Factory Act does not address anything about CL or SL.
