Hello,
I am a newly recruited HR in a Pvt. Ltd. Co. The total strength of employees is around 25. Leave provisions are as follows:
- Earned/Privilege leave - 12
- Public holidays - 12
Apart from this, the company does not have any provisions for Casual leave and Sick leave. Kindly assist in drafting a proper leave policy. Also, please clarify whether casual leave is mandatory. I have to put up a fresh proposal and present it for approval to our Managing Director. Please note our office overseas has all leave benefits.

Dear Anmol,
Leave provisions depend upon the establishment-specific labor law applicable to the organization. Unless the type of the establishment is known, it will not be possible to provide a correct answer. If yours is a factory, there is no provision for C.L and S.L. If it is an establishment under the State Shop & Estt Act, then it is compulsory for the employer to provide for C.L, S.L, and P.L in their leave policy at not less than the scales prescribed under the applicable law.

Thank you so much, everyone. Ours is a lighting company registered under the Companies Act. This is our head office in Mumbai. We have factories in Dubai and Mumbai. Are the rules for office staff and factory staff different? Kindly update, sir.

Dear colleague,
Obviously, Dubai laws will apply to those employees working there. You may extend the same leave policy as Mumbai for the sake of uniformity and if it is of mutual benefit.
