If an employee has consumed all of their paid leave and has taken Leave Without Pay (LWP) on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, would it count as 3 days of LWP or 2 days of LWP? I would also appreciate it if you could provide me with some supporting information.

Ideally Woff can not be deemed as LWP. YOu can not deprive him from his weekly off if are paying wages/ salary on 30/31 day basis.

Understanding Leave Without Pay (LWP) and Holiday Counting
In cases of Loss of Pay Leave (LWP) (approved leave), any intervening holidays or weekly off days need not be counted as per convention. However, there is no hard and fast rule under labor laws regarding how these holidays sandwiched in between should be treated. It all depends on the leave policy/standing orders of the employer concerned.
Counting Holidays in Different Leave Types
Whereas in the case of normal leave like PL/EL/Sick leave, these holidays sandwiched will be counted except when they are prefixed or suffixed. However, HR/Leave policies differ from establishment to establishment. What labor laws state is that there shall be weekly holidays and other holidays as prescribed under state acts/rules.

As rightly said by Vispipatwa, the Sandwich rule is applicable only for paid leaves, whether it is CL/SL/EL, but not applicable on LOP. So in this case, the employee must be on 2 days LOP and not 3 days, as per my view.
