LEAVES

For any leave, an application must be put in and leave must be sanctioned by the Immediate Manager in
advance, unless the circumstances are beyond an employee’s control. In such a situation, leave
application must be submitted, immediately on resuming work. Any absence from work unless authorised
through leave application shall be unauthorised, it will be treated as leave without pay.

CASUAL LEAVE
All employees including probationers and trainees will be entitled to 12 days Casual Leave during a
calendar year. These leaves will be credited to individual’s account at the beginning of the year.
An employee can avail CL, subject to the following:
 A maximum of 3 day’s CL can be availed in a month. Also not more than 3 casual leaves can be
availed at one time, unless absence is due to illness. In such a situation a certificate must
accompany the leave application from a Medical Practitioner
 CL cannot be clubbed with any other leave
 In case CL is availed because of medical reasons it can be clubbed with PL if the duration of
leave is more than the CL balance in an individual’s account
 A holiday or a weekly off can either be prefixed or suffixed with casual leave. Any holiday /
weekly off falling during CL period shall be counted as leave

PRIVILEGE / EARNED LEAVES (PL)

All regular local employees will earn Privilege leave @25 working days per annum.
PL can be availed only after putting in at least 4 month of work with the Company. A new employee shall
earn PL for the month during which he/she has joined, only if the joining is by 15th. (As a practice, PL will
be credited twice a year in advance. Jan 01st & July 01st. Prorated leave entitlement from Jan 01 st to 30th
June will be credited on Jan 01 st i.e. beginning of the year. Likewise, prorated entitlement, from July 1 st to
Dec 31s, will be credited, on July 01st. In case of new joinees, prorated entitlements for the period above
will be credited, on the date of joining.)
PL can be accumulated maximum up to 30days of entitlement. An employee can have the option of
encashing PL in case of an emergency. The encashment is limited to the condition that he/she should
have a balance of at least 50 days of PL, even after encashment. (Encashment will based on leave
balance, before credit of PL as explained above). The company shall do automatic encashment of PL
once the balance exceeds 30 days for the days as on 31 Dec every year. Encashment of PL shall be at
the rate of the last drawn Basic Salary. The excess PL over and above 30days as on 31 Dec 50% of the
PL will get lapsed as on 31 Dec and rest will be paid to the employee with Jan Salary. The employee is
encouraged to avail of privilege leave. The intervening weekly off / holidays, during the leave period shall
not be counted as leave.
