Casual and sick leave varies from company to company depending upon company policy.

EL Calculations and Accumulation

With regard to EL calculations and accumulation of EL, please refer to the Factories Act. You can also refer to the Shops and Commercial Establishment Act and Delhi rules if they apply. EL encashment will be based on gross salary/wages.
