If one takes leave on Saturday and does not report for duty on Monday, should Sunday be considered as leave? Or will it remain a weekly off? Please let me know the rule. I work in a factory governed by the Factories Act of 1948.

Hi Schakraborty,
In my opinion, it depends on the company policies whether they are considering this rule or not. Generally, good companies do not consider this kind of rule. I was working with a small firm, XYZ, where they had the same rule, but I don't think this is valid because Sunday is not a working day, so why include it in leave? We should consider Monday as his leave day. Companies like Infosys do not include Saturday and Sunday as leave; only working days are considered as leave.

Hi Garima,
If any company is off on Saturday and Sunday, of course, they will not include these days as holidays. But if anyone takes leave on Friday and does not come to the office on Monday, they will include your Saturday and Sundays as leave. Most companies follow this rule.

Hey Meetu,
Yeah, you are also correct on your part because it totally depends on the company's policy. I already mentioned an example because in my firm, I had taken leave for 8 days and reported right on Tuesday. There were Saturday and Sunday in between, but they included them in my leave. So, this was the case with my small firm. At the same time, my friend who is working with Infosys has also taken leave and reported on the same day, but his leave was counted as 6 days.
So, it concludes that generally, the bigger companies follow this rule that they do not count the weekend as your leave day if you are not reporting on Monday.

Do not leave your policy. If you don't like the company, then you can change your policy from one company to another company. Only convert it, don't leave it.

Dear Ganesh Narode,
If an employee does not come to duty for the whole month, what salary will you pay them? According to me, it should be "0000" or will you pay a salary only for Sundays? No, man, it's not like this; the same applies in the case of taking leave.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Garima/Meetu/Jon,
I want to know exactly what has been defined by the Factories Act, 1948. Companies formulate policies based on prevailing laws. If the Factories Act 1948 stipulates that when Saturday and Monday are not reported for duty, Sunday should be considered as leave instead of the Weekly Off, then the company may comply with it or may choose to voluntarily grant the weekly off. However, it is essential to understand precisely what the law states.

Hi,
As per the Factory Act of 1948, when an employee takes leave before or after their weekly off, the weekly off should be considered as part of the leave. However, nowadays, most companies, especially those in corporate and IT cultures, have their own leave policies where the weekly off is not counted as part of the leave.

Hi Schakraborty,
I know that according to the Factory Act of 1948, Saturday and Sunday should be considered as leave when you fail to report on Monday. However, there are many organizations that are changing this rule. Therefore, it wholly and fully depends on the company. In my opinion, this rule is justified.
