Hello All,

Please enlighten me on the below two queries related to the sandwich leave policy as follows:

1: If an employee takes leave on Thursday and Friday (including his week off Saturday and Sunday) and returns back to work on Monday.

2: On 7 January 2023 (Saturday) is considered a week off in our organization, and the employee is on leave on 9 January 2023, i.e., Monday.

Shall we apply the sandwich leave policy in both of the above-said queries? Please suggest and provide your valuable remarks.

Thanks & Regards,

HR

Hi,

Query No. 1: Sandwich leave will not apply as the employee reported to the office for work on Monday. If the employee availed leave on Monday, then in between Saturday/Sunday to be adjusted against his leave balance.

If 7th Jan 2023 and 8th Jan 2023 are weekly off and the employee availed on 9th Jan 2023 alone, then sandwich leave will not be applicable. However, if the employee was on 6th Jan 2023 (Friday), then the sandwich will be applicable.

In addition to what Mr Lakshmi Narayan has said, I would like to state that sandwich leave does not apply to a factory kind of establishment.
