I have a query regarding salary deductions for the staff.

1) If a staff member takes leave on Saturday on an immediate basis without prior information, should we deduct their salary for both Sunday and Saturday in such cases?

2) Similarly, if a staff member takes leave on Monday on an immediate basis without prior information, should we deduct their salary for both Sunday and Monday in such cases?

Please let me know your thoughts on how to handle these situations. Thank you.

I don't think it is justified. Only one day's salary can be deducted. However, some establishments have their own service conditions to control weekend leave. If the staff is a workman under the ID Act, he can claim wages before the Payment of Wages Authority for the deduction made on Sunday.
