Dear Seniors,
Our company falls under "The Punjab Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, 1958". Are employees on probation liable for any type of leave such as Earned Leave (EL), Casual Leave (CL), or Sick Leave (SL)? My company policy is silent on this matter.

It all depends on the company policies. In my knowledge, no leave is granted under probation except CL. However, advance PL is considered depending on exigencies. Pon

Dear Rajni,
For Casual Leave and Sick leave, kindly refer to "The Punjab Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, 1958" Section 14(4) for the same.
"Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing sub-section, every employee in an establishment shall be allowed with wages seven days of casual leave and seven days of sick leave in a year."
On the other hand, the entitlement of Earned Leave (EL) depends upon the company policy.

Comment posted by you is misleading.
You cannot decide company policies contrary to legal provisions. The query posted is about specific legal provisions applicable in the state of Punjab, and one must comment on it only if he or she knows the relevant provision.

Acknowledge(0)Amend(0)- Factories Act is not applicable in instant case since the query is about Shop or Commercial Establishments.
- The Punjab Industrial Establishment National & Festival Holidays & Casual & Sick Leaves Act is also not applicable in instant case. Since definition of Industrial Establishment given in Act dose not cover Shops & Establishments.
