Dear Seniors,
Would sincerely appreciate your help in clarifying the following:
Our company is covered under the Shops & Establishment Act. As per the HR policy, during the six month probation period, one is not eligible for any leave. But in an eventuality when an individual (who is on probation) has to work on a Sunday too, does it become mandatory to give him/her a compensatory off for the same? Can an employee be made to work continuously without any off?
Thanks for an early revert.

The company's policy cannot be contrary to the Bombay Shops Act which does not exclude an employee under probation from the benefits under teh Act.therefore an employee wheter under probation or not, is entitled to compensatory off if called to work on a holiday.
