Hi,

While designing you have to decide first How many leaves in a year you r going to provide. How you r going to segregate it. Like sick leave, Casual Leave, Education leave Etc...

In our organisation we merged all categories as one and named it as Privileged leave.

You have to show some difference in no of leaves can be availed. For ecample 1. trainees how many 2. For employees under probation how many 3. For confirmed employees how many?

Process of availing leave like:

1. Who r the authoritative persons can give permission
2. How to process
3. While giving permission what factors should consider

Incase of emergency what process - Like informing Dept head through phone and submitting leave application later.

Occassional Leave:

1. In case of Death / urgency - maximum permit of leave
2. In case of marriage - maximum limit.

For uninformed or unauthorised leave what was the penality.

Leaves for employees who falls under ESI - How many leaves and what was the process

Meternity leave - Specifications.

What is the rule for providing notice for availing leave? Minimum how many days one should give notice for availing leave. If the notice is not given then can any action be taken.

HI!
For CL and SL there in not praticular notice to be given. Yes but when you anything planned well in advance and you need to take a day or 2 CL then you need to inform atleast 3-4 days before but in case of a planned PL you need to inform regarding those leaves atleast a month before. Incase if the person has not informed you abt those planned leaves well in advance the best you could do is count them as LWP

Your article was really helpful to me, this will definately help me to design and implement the leave policy in my company.
However if you could clear one more doubt of mine as to what is LWP?
Thanks once again.
Cheers,

Hi! Dharni
LWP - Leave without pay. Incase an employee doesnt have any leaves in his account but still takes a leave then the amount for that many no.of days would be deducted from his salary.
