Hi, I can help you with that. In my company, we provide various types of leaves such as CL, SL, and EL. According to the Factories Act of 1948, an employee is entitled only to Annual Leave with Wages (Earn Leave). Now, I would like to revise our company's leave policy to exclude casual leave and sick leave. Is there any legal issue with this change? Are employees eligible for CL and SL as per the Factories Act of 1948?

Due to the recession, we stopped giving OT payments in my company. Instead of OT, we are now providing Compensatory Off to the workers. However, they didn't understand this change, and now they are asking for OT payment or threatening not to come to work on National holidays. Okay, I will comply with the conditions as per the Labor Acts. Now, I also want to align with the Labor Acts. In my opinion, there is no law stating that employers should provide CL & SL to employees. Leaves are provided for employee welfare purposes.
Can I change my company policies as I like? If there are any legal issues, PLEASE ENSURE ME.

In my view, every employer should provide at least 8 holidays per annum and a 12-day leave policy that includes CL and SL. Overtime (OT) pay depends on the employer's capability, and it cannot be demanded by the employee unless it is specified in any of the documents.

As per the Factories Act, the employer should pay overtime at double wages. I am not discussing the leave policy regarding CL & SL. According to labor laws, is the employee eligible for CL & SL? If yes, please send supported documents.

It's a valid point. Even I noticed that only Annual Leave is mentioned, with nothing about CL or SL. Can anyone clarify if CL and SL are applicable to Officers, Managers, and Senior Executives who work in a manufacturing unit? According to the Act, every employee should be eligible for AL, including workers below the Executive cadre. Which one is correct? Please reply soon.

Dear Kailashkumar,
Thank you for your reply, but have you supported documents? I don't find any supported documents like this in the Factories Act, 1948. If you have any supported documents, please post regarding CL & SL.

Hi Sekar,
Wages are best associated with employee compensation based on the number of hours worked multiplied by an hourly rate of pay. Salary is best associated with employee compensation quoted on an annual/monthly basis.

Dear all,
This is my first reply. The topic of the legality of CL and SL under the Factories Act could be sourced from the state factory rules or from the Labour Commissioner's office, where they will provide you with information on Casual Leaves (5-7) and Sick Leaves (0-15), varying as per state legislations. For reference, you can consult the Standing Orders officials in the Labour Department.
