Dear Shikha,
It depends on the personnel policy of the company. However if there are no leave rules in place, it is better to frame one to have an uniform policy and not to leave something to the whims and fancies of the individual. However the general policy followed is if it is a Casual Leave or Earned Leave intervening off is not considered as leave. But if the leave is either Sick leave/Maternity leave/ Half pay leave to be availed on sickness /illness/maternity related cases then the intervening off will also be considered as leave.

Hi, If you refer the act it only specifies the no of minimum leave entitled. Whether to account in between holidays/weekends depends on the company, but a good practice is not to consider them as leaves. If someone takes leave on friday and monday, it is ideally taken as two days of leave (as a good HR practice)... Ask yourself this: employee gets paid for the month... i.e 30 days and not for 22/25 working days as the case maybe.... hence irrespective when the leave is taken leave deduction should be only for the absent dates.... if a good HR practice is to be set

In our orgsn, we do not consider the weekly offs or intervening holidays as leave. Only the actual working days for which the employee is absent is considered as leave, which is the practice in 80% of the IT companies.
