Hello,
Here's a simple breakdown of the leave and holiday structure for Maharashtra in 2023:
1. **Paid leaves/ Earned Leaves**: As per the Factories Act 1948 and the Maharashtra Shops and Establishment Act 2017, an employee is eligible for 1 Earned Leave after every 20 working days. So, if you work for 240 days in a year, you would earn 12 leaves.
2. **Casual Leaves**: The Maharashtra Shops and Establishment Act 2017 provides for 8 Casual Leaves in a calendar year.
3. **Sick Leaves**: According to the Maharashtra Shops and Establishment Act 2017, an employee is eligible for 8 Sick Leaves in a calendar year.
4. **National Holidays**: The number of national holidays can vary each year, but typically there are 3 fixed National holidays in India - Republic Day (January 26), Independence Day (August 15), and Gandhi Jayanti (October 2).
5. **Festival / Optional Holidays**: The number of festival holidays can vary depending on the company's policy and the list of festivals celebrated in Maharashtra. However, under the Maharashtra Shops and Establishment Act 2017, employees are entitled to a minimum of 4 festival holidays including Maharashtra Day (May 1).
For the list of holidays in 2023, it will be best to refer to the official holiday list published by the Maharashtra government as it may vary each year.
Please note that these rules are subject to change as per the updates in the labor laws and it's important to check with your HR department for the updated rules and company-specific policies.
I hope this helps. Please feel free to ask if you have more queries.
