A company in financial service industry wants to have compulsory shutdown twice in a year for 5 days each where in employees earned leave will be debited. Does this contavene any labour laws?
Can the shutdown be pre-fixed twice a year and announced in HR manual under leave policy ?

May we know what is the eligibility of Earned leave privileged to your employees? This could be clearly understood in parlance with that information. However, 10 days are gone, what balance will be left with for enjoying the EL? Please let it known. Probably, those who wish could reply you better.

Hello
This practice cannot be followed as there is no provision for the same under Shops & Estab Act of any State. The company cannot force EL dedcution because of their policy as such leaves are earned on the basis of last financial or calendar years. Also the same cannot be made as service condition by laying out in the HR manual or Employee Manual.

The total eligibility is 15 days earned leave in a year, 10 days CL and 5 days sick leave.

Dear,
Yes, In my point of view an Employer can force their employee’s to avail Compulsory Earned Leave, only on the following terms and conditions.
It should be linked with your LTA scheme (Leave Travel Assistance plan).
Its should be only once in year.
For the same employee’s will get sum amount as Travel Advance or reimbursements.
Other that the above reason Employer has no right to cut the Earned leave, for any reason what so ever.
In your HR Manual any specific reason stated for the same, please share it with us, so our seniors will guide you with more appropriate suggestions.

Company does not have proper attendence management system leading to accumulation of leaves . The attrition is high . Employees encash their earned leaves wen they leave which increases the expenses and liability and hence it the idea of " Compulsory Shut down "
