One of our employee has applied for half pay leave for the period 31/07/2017
04/08/2017 and 7th august as RH. The employee is going abroad. 5th & 6th august is
weekend. 7th August is a restricted holiday on account of rakhi. Under this situation
RH being suffixed after the week end, can we ignore week end or should it be counted in
continuation to the period already applied i.e., half pay leave applied for the period
31/07/2017 - 04/08/2017 to be continued for 5th & 6th August. thereafter permit RH to
be suffixed.
Your clarification in the above would greatly help

Dear Neeti,
In this kind of situations, Leave policy of the organisation plays very crucial role. Normally if off falls with sufix and prefix and leave then offs will be part of leave only. Thus, you can treat 5th and 6th as part of continuation of leave.

The term " leave " itself implies authorised absence from work. Permission to prefix and suffix holidays to a stretch of leave depends upon the policy of the organization and the nature of the duties of the incumbent.. Logical reason for permitting such a practice is based on the sheer convenience of both the employee and the organization. Naturally the employer can not ask the employee to report for duty on expiry of his already sanctioned leave on a day which is a holiday for the entire organization. Apart from suffixing weekly off to a particular stretch of sanctioned leave, the post indicates the issue of clubbing of a restricted holiday also. Moreover, it is not clear whether an employee can avail of weekly off despite his authorised absence for 6 days in the particular week. The very name would suggest the restricted nature of sanction to avail of such a holiday. Therefore it is a matter of the discretion of the leave sanctioning authority subject to the rules in force for clubbing of different kinds of leave at a stretch.

Thank you for the advice. But restricted holiday is as per the Government list. As per rule, RH can be suffixed or prefixed to any paid leave. Thus with this definition, week end should not be included in between two types of leaves i.e., paid leave + week end + RH

Moreover our organization works five days a week. As per CCS rules all intervening holidays are counted while availing long spells of leave. But in this case it is only five days of the week followed by week end and then a restricted holiday as per DOPT list

I think, it does not matter whether the holiday is the government ordered one or given additional by employer.
If a person is absent for whatever reason both before and after an official The holiday will be counted as part of leave as such wherever sandwich rule is in force. once this is added, the reason no longer matters. The employee should not have taken the half day knowing that The 2-3 days in the middle will be counted as leave.
However, there seems to be a discrepancy in the post. In order for the sandwich role to apply, The employee must be on leave or absent both before and after the holiday in question
