What kind of minimum leave policy structure can be initiated? Do we include weekends? Do we segregate across CL/PL/SL?

Dear Member,
Every employer should provide a minimum of one day off in a week. However, any 3 days before or after Sunday can be substituted for this (Cannot be varied everytime as per convenience).
This cannot be included in CL/PL/SL.
For every employee who has worked for a minimum of 240 days in a year or 180 days in case of mine / organizations having less than 6 working days in a week will be eligible for Paid leave @ 1 leave for every 20 days worked in case of Adult worker / 15 days in case of child worker. i.e., 1.25 leave per month or 15 PL IN A YEAR.
The said leave should be given on pro-rata basis, if the employee joins in the mid of the month.
PL can be availed after the completion of first year of service.
Apart from this 12 CLs are given to the employee (one per month) or 7 CLs and 5 SLs are given which is again equal to 12 leaves in a year.
Hence summarizing you should frame a policy that allows employees
1. 12 Cl or (7 CL + 5 SL )
2. 15 PL
3. a minimum of 1 day off in a week.
For more guidelines, Please refer Bombay shops and establishment Act.
Regards,
Santosh.
