Hi,
I am working as an HR executive at a private IT firm in Kerala with an employee strength of 40.
I need some clarifications regarding the provision of clubbing leaves.
For example, if friday is a holiday and the following saturday is a working day and ofcourse as normal the sunday after it is a usual holiday as in all companies. So in such an instance there is a practice found among my employees to take an off on saturday so that they get 3 days of consecutive leave.
I would like to know if there are any law in India to discourage such clubbed leaves. Or could you suggest a good leave policy to discourage this practice which would not have any legal contradictions.
One policy we had in mind was to deduct salary for 2 days taking into account the leave for saturday and a loss of pay for sunday eventhough sunday being a weekend holiday. Is there any law in India that restricts my organisation from implementing this policy.
Kindly get back to me on this issue as soon as

I forgot to mention that we practise casual leaves, sick leaves, maternity leave and compensatory offs. Keeping all this in mind please give a suggestion

Hi Devika,
Clubbing leaves are based on the organizational policy and not to do with Labour Law. When framing a leave policy, we have to consider clubbing PL/CL as prefix or suffix. You can as well re-frame the leave policy and announce that. Deducting salary abruptly for an employee for taking leaves on weekends are considered unethical and unprofessional.
First of all have a leave planner circulated to all employees asking them to plan their leaves for one calendar year/fiscal year. Only "Sick Leaves" are allowed to take with haddock information. It is all the way you put the policy across. Good luck!
