We suspended a worker in January 2008, later issued a chargesheet, and conducted a domestic enquiry. Finally, his services were terminated on November 29, 2008. My query is how we will calculate his annual leave during the suspension period. Will he be eligible for annual leave for the suspension period for encashment during full and final settlement? We are a factory, and all leaves are given as per the Factories Act.

Since he has not been reinstated, no annual leave will accrue in his case. Leave under the Factories Act is earned only when he works. Since he has not worked, he is not eligible for earned leave. However, any leave in his credit (balance) shall be paid to him.
