My dear friend,
The framing of your entire queries gives me the impression that you have the preconceived notion that the employees coming under the purview of the Minimum Wages Act,1948 are a separate class of workmen irrespective of the establishments where they are employed and as such they are governed by separate/special service conditions pertaining to matters of weekly off, leave, certain type of allowances in addition to the Statutory minimum wages and the like.
Sorry, it is not so. The objective of the Minimum Wages Act,1948 is to ensure the payment of statutory minimum wages to the employees employed in the scheduled employments and the over time wages at the rates based on the Statutory minimum rates of wages.
Therefore, weekly off, leave, HRA etc of such employees should be strictly as per the provisions of the establishment-specific labor law applicable to their establishment only.
