Dear all, Since you are working in an Engineering company, the Factory Act comes into play. This provides for a weekly off and substitution of weekly off. Accordingly, the weekly off falling on thursday can be substituted with another compensatory holiday on any day within three days preceding or succeeding the weekly off day. That means thursday can be substituted with a compensatory holiday on the succeeding friday, saturday or sunday. Alternatively it can be preceded by a holiday on wednesday, or tuesday or Monday. The substitution as above can by done by informing the employees concerned as well as the Factory Inspector. However if the weekly off is allowed on a holiday beyond the above limit, then specific approval of Factory Inspector is called for. There is no question of additional payment so long as the weekly hours of work do not exceed 48. From the brief description given, I gather that, you want to substitute the weekly off with an already declared holiday. This will not be correct as the employees in effect looses one holiday. As regards staff who have their weekly off on sunday, if sunday happens to be a holiday, the employee is not treated as absent , but it is a paid holiday for them as well. Hope the above clarifies.
