Dear Experts,
There is a provision in the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central Rules, 1946 that a workman may be granted casual leave of absence with or without pay not exceeding 10 days in the aggregate in a calendar year. Based on the above provision, a contractor establishment to whom the central rules are applicable is asking for a provision of 7 days' casual leave. Does this provision create a mandatory obligation to provide casual leave to the contract workmen with pay? Experts, please opine on what is the intent of this provision.
