I would like to know about the Sandwich leave rule.
We are a IT company and work for 5 days a week, Saturday and Sunday are treated as weekly off.
My query is if an employee has taken leave from Monday to Friday and he will resume his/her duties on Monday morning then how many days of leaves should be calculated.
Please advice.

I am also working in an IT company and we do work for 5 days a week. In such cases we count 5 days of absence. Weekly offs are not considered as leaves. Thanks, Shilpi

Generally as a matter of practice, CL & PL are not considered as Sandwitch leaves & hence w/offs are excluded in these types of leaves.
However, in case fo SL or LWP, intermittent w/offs are also considered as leaves.

Dear Roshni,

In simple words sandwich leaves refers to the leave policy where leaves are treated as continuous. For example, if an employee has taken leave on Friday and Monday and in between there are two weekly offs i.e, Saturday and Sunday, then these 2 days coming in between Friday and Monday will also be counted as leaves and total leaves will be 4. So in a nutshell, any weekly offs, Holidays falling in between EL,CL,SL are sandwiched and to be counted as leaves in sandwich leave policy.

Now coming to your query, if an employee has taken leaves from Monday to Friday and resume his duties on Monday morning where Saturday and Sunday are weekly offs, his leaves will be counted as 5 days (mon-fri) as per sandwich leave policy. Here in this case weekly offs doesn't come in between the leaves and employee has joined on Monday so only 5 days leave will be counted, in same case if the same employee has taken leave on Monday as well and have joined his duties on Tuesday then in that case total 8 leaves will be counted as per sandwich leave policy.

I hope your doubts are clear now, do revert in case of further information on the same.

Dear Roshni, I completely agree with Mr. Ashutosh’s explanation. We also follow the Sandwich leave policy and we follow the same way as described by Mr. Ashutosh.

Dear All,
In my view , if the leave is continued to Monday then Sat & Sun will be include as leave otherwise if ons resumes duty on Monady then leave will be considered upto Friday only as Sat & Sun is Weekely off for your company,
Hope, it is clear.
