Hi. Is there any rule about Earned leaves that an associate can apply for it only once or twice in a year? Provided if the leaves are segregated as Sick leaves, casual leaves and earned leaves. And if yes then how may EL an associate will get in a year.
Hi , Factories act states that During the initial year of service no leave is allowed under the Fcatories Act. In the subsequent year an employee will get leave at the rate of one day per 20 days worked in the previous year, that also, if he had actually worked for 240 days in that previous year. It is not like earning one day after every 20 days work and carrying it forward or availing it after every 20 days. The calculation is done after the closure of a calendar year and only those who have actaully worked for 240 days (days of holidays, weekly off , leave due to employment injury, lay off maternity leave days in case of women etc are taken as days worked for this purpose) only are eligible for such leave. It is called annual leave with wages/ earned leave. Therefore, one who works for 230 days in the year 2007 who was laid off for 6 days and was on leave for temporary employment injury for 4 days will be eligible for leave in 2008. However, he will earn leave only for 230 days he had worked.

Dear Suruchi, Mr. Mahesh have very well explained the provision of Factories Act,1948 with regards to the eligibility & grant of E L.Under this Act EL can be taken thrice during the calendar year. You have not mentioned whether your establishment is covered under the Factories Act or State Shops Act. First examine this matter as these types leaves depend upon the coverage of the unit & then the matter can be taken up & answered accordingly.

Hi, Thanks Mahesh for explaining so nicely. But i think my company is not covered under factory act as we are into medical transcript (health care). Do you know what is the general rule for the same..
If you are doing medical transcription, i guess your company should fall under shops and establishments act... please see the definition of factories under factory act... Shops and establishments have state wise acts which also include details about leaves... I hope this information will help you
