Provisions similar to that of the Factories Act, 1948 have been adopted under the Shops and Establishment acts of various states in India. For example, Delhi Shops and Establishments Act, 1954 mandates that every person employed in an establishment is entitled to:
i. privilege leave for a period of not less than 15 days, after every twelve months of continuous employment; and
ii. casual or sick leave for a total period of not less than 12 days every year.
An employee becomes entitled to a minimum of 5 days of privilege leave for every four months of continuous employment and a minimum of 1 day casual leave upon completion of every month at work.

The Amendment Act shall specifically be applicable to the State of Maharashtra. The amended provisions shall be in consonance with the Factories Act, 1948 (“Principal Act”) and shall only replace the relevant provisions as and to the extent mentioned in the Amendment Act.
