Dear HR Friends,
Currently, I am drafting a leave policy for my company. Could you please assist me with the following Privilege Leave (PL) issues:
1) Number of times PL can be taken in a year
2) Number of days PL can be taken at a time
3) Should PL be made compulsory for the employees to take at least once a year?
I appreciate your help and quick responses.
Thank you in advance.
