Annual Leave With Wages
Every employee in the world shall get the leaves when in need along with the fixed weekly leave and other holidays. In the factory act, 1948 every working employee who has exceeded the 240 days working in a factory during a calendar year has the sole right for leaves with wages for a number of days. The calculation of annual leave with wages is done on the basis of the following:
- In case of an adult – one day for every twenty days of work, during the previous calendar year.
- In case of a child- one day for every fifteen days, during the previous calendar year.
- The leaves shall be exclusive of all the holidays occurring in between or end of the leave period.
- If a worker has worked for the two third of the total number of days in the balance of the calendar year.
- If a worker is being dismissed or resigns from the work or if s/he dies during his service period, the amount shall be paid to the nominee.
- While calculating the leaves the fraction of half day or more would be considered as a full day.
- If any worker/s hasn’t taken any leave in the previous year calendar, then his previous leaves will be added to the current year of leaves calendar.
- The paid leaves shall be granted to the worker who is on sick leave, under the section 81, the worker should be allowed to have paid leave to cover the period of illness.
