HI
I am not clear with maximum leaves that any employee will be getting per year. Except Marriage, Maternity, Paternity & Education Leaves.
Whether you mean Paid leave & Earned Leave both are same or Earned Leave & Privilege Leave both are same or all are different.
There is no any clause that how many CL any employee can avail in a row. Can any employee can avail 5 or 10 days in a stretch?
As per the policy if I am not wrong I feel that all the employees have right to avail 60 Leaves per annum
Kindly be specific
