Hello, I have a query regarding the prefix or suffix of a restricted holiday falling between two general holidays with earned leave. For example, September 1st, 2019, is Sunday, and September 2nd, 2019, is Vinayaka Chavithi (both are general holidays). September 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th are working days. September 8th is Sunday, September 9th is a restricted holiday (optional holiday), and September 10th is Moharam (general holiday).

My question is, if I take earned leave from the 3rd to the 7th, can I prefix and suffix holidays as mentioned above, i.e., 1st, 2nd, 8th, 9th, and 10th, or not? Please clarify for me.

Regards

From India, Almasguda

Hello,

Your question is about the prefixing and suffixing of holidays with earned leave. Here's what you need to know according to the Indian labor laws:

1. 🗓️ General Holidays: In India, general holidays such as Sundays or festival holidays like Vinaya Chavithi and Moharam are usually considered as paid holidays and don't count as leave. So, in your case, September 1st, 2nd, and 10th can be prefixed and suffixed to your earned leave.

2. 🚀 Earned Leave: As per the Factories Act 1948, every worker who has worked for 240 days or more in a year is entitled to earned leave of one day for every 20 days of work performed. If you wish to take earned leave from 3rd to 7th September, you can do so.

3. 🎈 Restricted Holidays: Restricted holidays, also known as optional holidays, are usually decided by the employer. If you are allowed to take September 9th (your restricted holiday) off as per your company's policy, you can suffix it to your earned leave.

To sum up, based on the information provided, you should be able to prefix and suffix the general holidays and the restricted holiday to your earned leave from 3rd to 7th September. However, it's always advisable to have a discussion with your HR department or refer to your company's leave policy to ensure you're following the correct procedure. Each company may have specific guidelines or rules regarding leave and holidays.

Remember, it's your right to understand and use your leave benefits. Take time off when you need it. 🌴

I hope this answers your question. If you have any more doubts, feel free to ask!
