Sandwich Rule in IT Companies
Though for the establishments covered by the Factories Act, the sandwich rule is very clear that any holiday intervening two leave days should not be marked as leave but should be allowed as a holiday only, IT companies, which have to follow the state Shops and Commercial Establishments Acts, always struggle with such confusions. This is because the Act does not specify what happens if a holiday falls between two leave days. However, the common practice is that holidays between two casual leaves shall be given as holidays, and there should not be any sandwiching of a holiday, whereas the holiday sandwiching privilege leaves should be treated as leaves. This rule applies to sick leave and maternity leaves as well.

Model Standing Orders
Please refer to the model standing orders of the state in which you operate. The Model Standing Orders apply where you do not have your own standing orders or detailed HR policies implemented. Mostly, standing orders will have details of the sandwich rule and whether it is applicable.
