This is a very interesting scenario I encountered during leave settlement against salary. I had a -25 days negative leave balance for 2014, so HR informed me that they would deduct the salary for these days. I requested them to do so in parts, not in a single go. Consequently, they deducted 6.8 days of salary and credited 5 days of leave to my account, as (30/22)*5=6.8.
Is This Practice Legal?
This means you are paying only for the working 22 days in a month. :) Please advise at the earliest.

Hi, According to your question, Salary is going to pay for 30 days not for 22 days. Please clear this with your HR

Understanding Leave and Salary Calculations
Leaves are credited based on the number of working days, and salary is processed based on the number of calendar days. Therefore, we need to convert working days into calendar days.
Your salary has been deducted for 5 working days, which is equivalent to 6.8 calendar days.
1 working day = 30/22 calendar days
5 working days = 30/22 * 5 = 6.818 calendar days
This is the response I received from HR. What should I do in this case? Should I ask for the policy document for clarification?

Although I am losing from this situation, let's consider one scenario: suppose someone takes leave for 1 month. Then, the leave taken is negative in terms of the number of working days, and the salary deducted is for the whole month.
So, this seems a bit logical.
Please suggest, guys!
