Good morning. I would like to inquire about the leave policy according to labor law. I have studied different types of leave policies, and each policy has some new rules, so I am very confused to see that. Please suggest to me what I should do in such a case. I will await your valuable reply.
Thank you

Understanding Company Leave Policies
All policies, including leave policies, differ from company to company. With regards to your query, firstly check whether your company falls under the Factories Act or the S&E Act. Accordingly, refer to the Act of your state for minimum leaves. You can extend more leaves from the standard minimum leaves mentioned under the Act.
Policies available in the forum are for reference and should be drafted according to the needs of your company. In a nutshell, the policy of one company will not be the Bible of another company.

I agree with your answer, but if I read the S&C Act, we find that EL is given on 20 working days and how it is to be paid is mentioned in the rule. However, in the case of SL and CL, it is just mentioned that we give 7 leaves for SL and 7 leaves for CL, but the rule is not clear. What should be done in this case? Can we carry forward CL and SL to the next year? Please suggest.
Thank you.

Understanding Leave Policies: A Guide
If in the S&E Act, for every 20 working days, 1 Earned Leave (EL) has to be provided, then for 365 days, 18 EL days are to be provided as a minimum for a year. So, draft a policy accordingly.
With regards to Sick Leave (SL) and Casual Leave (CL), if 7 days are provided, you can allocate them on a prorated basis for every month. The basic rule is that leaves are counted on the Calendar Year. SL/CL lapse automatically after the completion of the Calendar Year; only EL/PL are carried forward.
To draft a policy, you can refer to the Leave Policy discussed earlier in the forum. One of the links is mentioned herein below: https://www.citehr.com/471430-draft-leave-policy.html

The leave policy is governed by either the respective State's Shop and Establishment Act (different states have different entitlements) or by the Factory Act/Rules. The Factory Act provides entitlements for Earned Leave (EL) but does not mention Casual or Sick leave, whereas Shop and Establishment Acts specify EL, CL, and SL.
Different states have different rules regarding the number of holidays. Therefore, I suggest doing a bit of research to understand the proper entitlements.

Earned Leave (EL):
• 1 day of EL can be granted for every 20 worked days, not in working or calendar days, subject to having a minimum of 240 worked days. In case of not having 240 worked days, you may consider the EL enjoyed in the preceding year only for eligibility.
Casual Leave (CL):
• You may grant 10 days of CL as referred to in the Model Standing Orders Act.

According to the Factory Act of 1948, if a person works for 240 days in a calendar year, they are entitled to Earned Leave. One day of Earned Leave (EL) can be granted for every 20 days worked.
The Factory Act provides entitlements for Earned Leave but does not mention Casual or Sick leave. All policies, including the Leave policy (SL/CL), vary from company to company.

The computation is good but leaves out certain salient features. For instance, for Delhi, a person should have worked at least 60 days out of 4 months to be entitled to EL. May I suggest that you include maternity leave as well? Despite this, your computation does provide an excellent comparison.

Understanding Leave Entitlements
Every 20 days of work, you will receive 1 PL. The CL rule is not clear; it depends on the company's policies. It could be 10 or 7, or it may be calculated based on PL. For example, if an employee receives 13 PL, we can create a formula such as, "For every 15 PL an employee receives, they get 10 CL." In this case, what would be the CL entitlement for 13 PL?

As many of the members suggested, please refer to the act that corresponds to where your company fits in and proceed accordingly. If it is S&E, then it's simple:
- 12 CL
- 12 EL
- 12 SL
- ML & PL
You could customize it based on your organization.
