This query is regarding Casual Leave. If an employee applies for CL for Friday & the subsequent Monday, would the intervening holidays (Sat & Sun) also be counted as leave or only Friday & Monday are counted as leave?

Hi,
That depends on the policy you had initially fixed. It can go either way. Many companies count Saturday and Sunday as part of leaves to discourage these kinds of absences, though many do not in order to provide flexibility to employees.
If you have not established such a policy, you can do so now and circulate it among your employees.

Hi Neena,
No ways! In any case, Saturday and Sunday will not be counted as leave. Undoubtedly, only 2 CL will be deducted from the employee's account. In the case of EL and medical leave, Saturday and Sunday will be included in the leave taken. This policy is the same all over; you need not circulate any fresh clarification in this regard.

Dear Nina,
Please review the application format of your company for clarification. What I am trying to say is that the format should be as follows:
Name of Employee
Type of Leave
Number of Days:
From
To
Signature of Employee
Sanctioned By:
So, if the sanction is for two days, then Saturdays and Sundays would not be taken into account. The safe practice to follow would be to apply for Casual Leave (CL) for the two days separately. Once this is done, you can bypass all policies. (Playing with Rules - a trick we HR should be experts on)
