Is it correct that if you have been provided with a specific number of leave days for different categories in your appointment letter, the management must grant all such leave within a year even if you are not eligible for the full number of leave days mentioned in the appointment letter based on your actual working days? Someone told me that the appointment letter is a contractual agreement, so the management is obligated to provide all the specified leave days in a year, and until all sick leave (SL) and casual leave (CL) are utilized, the management cannot allocate earned leave (EL). What is the process for this? Please advise.

There is no need to provide information about the leaves in the appointment letter. The candidate is not eligible for any kind of leaves for the first 6 months. This period depends on the organization; it may vary from 6 months to 8 months and sometimes 1 year.

After the person receives his confirmation letter, he is eligible for all kinds of leaves, i.e., PL - 15 days, CL - 6 days, and SL - 9 days per year. PL can be carried forward for the next year, but CL and SL cannot be carried forward or encashed.

Could anybody reply to me whether EL and PL are similar in sense and if different kinds of companies (IT, consultancy services, factories, hotels, hospitals, etc.) have different leave policies?

Understanding Earned Leave (EL) and Privilege Leave (PL)

EL (Earned Leave) and PL (Privilege Leave) are the same. Leave policies are framed based on the relevant Acts. In your case, those companies are covered under the Shops and Establishments Act. Please refer to the Act to know about the different types of leaves.
