I am getting leave one day per month, now I’m in notice period. I have 10 days leave balance. Since I’m in notice period, company is not calculating current month of leave. They are ready to pay only for 10 days not for 11 days…
Should I get 10 days pay r 11 days pay?

As per Section 79 Clause 1 and 1 (i) of Factories Act, 1948 if employee worked for a period of 240 days or more in a factory he shall be allowed for leave with wages. In case of an adult leave will be calculated at the rate of one day for every twenty days of work performed by him. There is no direct nexus between notice period and leave falling in employee bucket. According to me you are entitled for 1 days leave if you had worked more than 20 days in month during notice period. (In your case total leave will become 11 days)

Basic purpose of notice period (for employer) is that the organization can have enough time to find a replacement and notice period serving employee can train the replacement for that particular position. Notice period do not give rights to management to discriminate employee and arbitrary make such policy which are against the basic rights of employees.

Organization should [must] not indulge in such practices. It’s not only illegal, unethical but it can lead to culture where employee leave organization without serving the notice period and it can also hamper the image of organization. This will have more devastating effect on organization in long run and I think no management want this.

If you have joined your organization during the first fifteen days of the calendar month, i.e., from the 1st to the 15th (both days inclusive), you are eligible to get a day's leave for that particular month, as per general leave rules. This policy is accepted and agreed upon by the labor department as well.

Had you joined from the 16th to the end of the calendar month, i.e., the second fortnight, you are not eligible for a day's leave for that particular month. Similarly, if you resigned from the 1st to the 15th of a calendar month, you are not eligible for a day's leave for that month.

It should be the ethics of every organization that when an employee decides to leave, the HR team should show generosity to a certain extent in relieving the employee with good gestures. The goal is to ensure that the employee does not leave the organization with bitterness and grievances. This practice, however, is not mandated by labor laws.

Please proceed with the above calculations. Best wishes
