Hi Folks, Greetings!
I have a small query: can we allocate different leave balances to employees according to their weekly off? As we are in the service industry, we need to assign employees to customer sites based on their weekly off schedule.
Currently, we offer 30 days of paid leave (PL) with no encashment, only carryforward, with a minimum policy of 10 leaves.
Could you please provide guidance on this matter?
Thanks,

Travel Policy Considerations for Employees on Tour
Anybody at the customer's site or traveling who misses their weekly day off should be covered under your travel policy. It is important to apply fair and equitable management practices to address the concerns and difficulties faced by employees on tour, in addition to their other entitlements such as TA/DA, L&B, etc.
What I mean is that there are not many employees traveling; the number is small for those who are traveling or on deputation at sites. In situations where an employee travels for 20-24 hours and returns home after 7-8 days, they should be allowed a rest period of 4-6 hours at home. This should be understood with their immediate superior.
Uniform Leave Policy for Touring Employees
The leave policy/entitlement for employees should be uniform and common for all employees if you treat touring employees as explained above. Following the same logic, if an employee at the customer's end works beyond eight hours, they should not be paid overtime. Such practices will only create administrative difficulties.
