Hi all, This was a question asked in an interview.
If an employee goes out of India for official work during his Diwali break, is he entitled for a leave later on? Can he ask for those holidays later?

Any person who works during a holiday (weekly holiday, national holiday or festival holiday) during which the office / factory is closed and he would have otherwise got a holiday, then he is entitled to a compensatory Off.
This concept of compensatory off is provided for in the Factories Act and may also be in the relevant state Shop & Establishment Acts. The standing orders, if applicable, will also have a provision for the same.
In any case, its only fair to give a compensatory off to the person for the holiday he couldn't avail.
The rule of compensatory off is that it needs to be availed within 3 days of the holiday he has worked. However, if he is not a worker but an officer, then you can always give a more flexible option of utilising it. To that extent, you may consider it as a special leave instead of compensatory off.
