Guidance on Employee Leave Due to Accident
Please share your guidance on the following concerns:
1. One of our employees (non-ESI) met with an accident while on duty and cut his right thumb, necessitating bed rest for a month. While the company is covering the medical expenses, I require clarification in two areas:
a) Absence from duty: According to the doctor's advice, should the one-month period be considered as part of the leave entitlement as per policy, or can special leave/accident on duty leave be granted? If so, under which ACT are such special leaves mentioned?

Act has not defined to provide any special leave to the employee met Accident by the employer but it's employer's moral & ethical duty to provide Special Leave in case an Accident occurs with an Employee & if the employee needs to take leave.

As per the Workmen's Compensation Act, this is a case of temporary partial disablement. The compensation in such a case is equal to 25% of wages, to be paid at an interval of two weeks. At the same time, the maximum salary as per the Act is Rs 8000, implying that an amount of Rs 2000 is to be paid for each fortnight.
