Hi,
I am from an International Call Centre. Here, we do not give Indian holidays; instead, we provide employees with US holidays. In this case, is it still mandatory to give the employees US holidays in addition to Indian holidays?

Hi Dsouza,
That depends from company to company. Some companies give Indian holidays, while others provide holidays according to the USA. However, this also depends on the employment contract signed between an employee and employer. The contract mentions whether USA or Indian holidays will be given.

Hi,
If employees work shifts for the USA/UK and follow USA/UK holidays, for example, if they work on May 1, 2017, is there an approval form required by the Karnataka Labour Office? Do we need to submit a letter and obtain a signature from the Labour Office since our employees work for the USA/UK and observe USA/UK holidays? Please advise if there is a specific form that needs to be signed by the Karnataka Labour Office.
Thank you.

We too do not have a holiday for May 1st. It was told that only laborers who work for the factory will be entitled to a holiday. The PF office, ISRO, and post office are all working today. Hence, we are not entitled to a holiday.
Any idea how a holiday is declared and how it is considered?
