Dear All,
I am working in a manufacturing firm. Our firm is under the Shops & Establishments Act in Delhi. Previously, we were granting 24 paid leaves to employees without categorizing them into EL, CL, and SL.
I want to revise this policy by categorizing these leaves. My confusion arises when, for example, I allocate 15 EL, 8 Casual, and 7 Sick leaves to an employee. If the employee takes one or two casual leaves in a month, will they still be able to avail the earned leaves, or do they need to be present regularly for the full 20 days?
Please clarify.

Dear Aanchal Tyagi, Earned leave is applicable for attendance, not for physical presence. All eligible leaves will be treated as attendance. Abbas.P.S

Thank you for the nice suggestion, but please let me know the rule as per the Shops and Establishments Act. Also, regarding the other comment in this thread stating that EL is for total attendance and not for physical presence, I am still confused after reading the comments.

Dear Abbas,
Thank you for your reply. However, your post has caused some confusion as some HR professionals have informed me that it is based on actual attendance or physical presence only.

EL is given for the total present days (attendance) in a month. (In case of present only, approved leave, and all week-offs are considered to be present). Hope it's clear now. Do let me know if any more information is required.

Hi all,
I am working in a Pvt. Ltd. as an HR. Here, there are only 12 EL and no CL or any type of leave. Now, my problem is all employees are asking to increase the number of leave at the same time to prepare the list of holidays (here I have to mention that the holidays depend on the decision of top management on the day). Now, I am stuck between the top management and employees.
SOMEONE CAN HELP ME OUT...........
And please share the list of holidays (2011 0 for Pvt. companies).
Thanks,

In our company, I am also facing the same problem. However, I have suggested to top management to increase the leaves and add sick leave, casual leave, and maternity leave. Now they are considering it, and I hope they will implement the changes. You can also suggest to your top management and inform them that it is in accordance with labor laws.

Dear Aanchal and Manish,
Please read sec 22 of Delhi Shops and Establishment Act 1954; it refers to leaves!!
As per the Act, 15 EL's and a total of 12 CL and SL's are granted. Earned Leaves, Casual Leaves, and Sick Leaves; if approved by the organization and availed; make an employee eligible for leave generation.
However, if an employee takes leave/leaves and has no leave balance, then this day/days will not qualify for leave generation. If an employee takes leave and the leave is not approved by the organization; then the leave days will also not qualify for leave generation.
P.S. - Attached is the Act for your reference.

Hi all,
I am working in a Pvt. Ltd. as an HR professional. Here, there are only 12 Earned Leaves (EL) and no Casual Leaves (CL) or any other type of leave. Now, my problem is that all employees are requesting an increase in the number of leaves while also needing me to prepare a list of holidays. It is important to note that holidays depend on the decision of top management on the day itself. I find myself caught between the top management and the employees.
Could someone help me out?
Please share the list of holidays for private companies in 2011.
Thanks,
Saloni
Refer to some statutory books or labor websites where you will find essential statutory compliance such as holidays, leaves, etc. Present this information to your management and explain it in a way that instills a sense of compliance with government regulations. Any management will naturally have a level of fear or respect for government authority. I have tried this approach in my company and it has been successful.
Give it a try. All the best.

Dear Shekhar,
Yes, weekly offs are considered for leave calculation. For example, if an organization offers 18 EL per year, then after every 20 days, one leave will be generated.
If the leaves are approved and availed from the balance leaves, then the leaves will be considered for leave calculation.
If the leave/leaves that an employee takes are unapproved, then this particular day/days will not be considered for leave calculation.

Dear Naval,
Is it mandatory to show the names of all employees working in the organization? If you have contractual labor, it should be mentioned in a different register.
For ESI and PF, you need to take registration first. For ESI, the deduction part is 4.75% from the employer's side and 1.75% from the employee's side, applicable on gross salary less than Rs. 15,000. For PF, the deduction part is 12% from both sides, applicable on Basic salary/Wages. Additionally, there is a 1.61% Admin charge on total wages.

We are following a calendar year leave account. Employees are expecting earned leave encashment. Can the entire EL balance be encashed by the individual, or do we need to retain a certain number of EL?

Carrying Forward Earned Leaves (EL)
EL can be carried forward to the next year, but one can accumulate only 30 ELs; the rest would be paid off or lapsed, depending on the company's policy. These accumulated 30 leaves would be paid at the time of Full & Final.
