Dear All,

We want to clarify our HR policies and procedures, among which leave calculation... 30 calendar days, says the law. Ok... but then... Do you include Fridays and Saturdays? Do you convert these days into working days? How do you count the leave when someone, for instance, takes a 1-week leave, from Thursday evening to Sunday morning (Friday and Saturday are off)? What are your company's policies?

The same question applies if you grant days without pay... How do you calculate the salary deduction?

Thank you for your help...

Dear valued HR,

Greetings from Dhaka, Bangladesh.

As far as I am concerned, there are some laws which are unchanged in any country. These are unchangeable laws from HR. Let me share what I know:

1) Any day off has to be calculated as regular pay day: Total salary / 30 days. For example, day offs are paid holiday / working days.

2) You simply count the total leave. If day offs are involved within the leave, they are also counted as leave. For instance, if Thursday evening to Sunday and Friday-Saturday are days off, then the total leave starts from Friday to Sunday, which equals 3 days. Joining date: Monday! :)

Thank you.
