Hi all,

A very good morning to all of you.

I am confused regarding the allotment of leaves. We have a total of 16 leaves (10 CL and 6 SL). I know it should be as per the month you join, but I am not clear on how to allot the leaves. For example, if someone joins in June, August, October, December, or January, what should be the number of leaves in this case? Kindly help.

Dear Shweta,

There are no statutory rules for casual leave and sick leave as such. However, the general practice is that leaves are not granted directly but are earned. To elaborate, in the case of casual leaves, if a person works for 36 to 40 days, they earn 1 casual leave. They can then accumulate these leaves as per the policy and utilize them whenever needed and whenever permitted.

On the other hand, for sick leaves, it is different because ideally, they should be taken whenever the person is sick. A person may join in July, August, or any other month, but as and when they complete a period of 36 to 40 days, they earn one day of leave. This is a general practice but can vary from company to company based on their policies.

Hi,

As per my knowledge, the leave cycle is from January to December. Paid Leave (PL) and Earned Leave (EL) are calculated based on total presence:
- 1 EL is accrued per 20 working days.
- Casual Leave (CL) and Sick Leave (SL) are as Sandeep mentioned above.

Does anyone else want to add something?

Thanks.

Dear Shweta,

As per my knowledge, the calculation is done the following way. If a person joins in, say, August, then he will have 7 CL and 4 SL. The calculation for the above will be as follows. Since your company has 10 CL per year and a year generally has twelve months, the formula for calculating CL would be 10/12 * the number of months he works for that year (E.g. he joins in August, he works for 8 months, i.e., from August to March).

Similarly for ML, it is 6/12 * the number of months. So when a person joins in August, he will work 8 months for that year, so his CL = 10/12 * 8 = 6.66 that can be rounded off to 7. ML = 6/12 * 8 = 4. Hope this clarifies; else, you can call me on my mobile. I will leave my mobile number as a private message.

Hi Shweta,

The leave policy should be based on the calendar year (Jan - Dec) not the financial year (April - March). You can use Jayshree's leave calculator to count the number of leaves in a particular time period.

Dear All,

As per the previous emails, it is clear that we need to calculate leave. Normally, the leave calculation period is from January to December. There are various types of leave such as earned leave, sick leave, and casual leave, but the specific names of leave types depend on the company.

Calculation guidelines are as follows:
- EL: One earned leave for every 20 days of work
- CL: One casual leave for every two months
- SL: Depends on sickness (maximum of 12 days)

If anyone joins in the middle of the year or at any point during the year, we must calculate the actual number of days worked.
