Dear All,
Facing a problem regarding salary calculation for an employee. Our company is registered under shops and establishment act. One of the employees joined on 20th Dec'12 and we are to process his salary till 31st Dec'12 i. e. 12 days are there. In between these days, 2 sundays and 1 Holiday (Christmas day) have fallen. Now, do let me know whether we should exclude those Sundays and Holiday while calculating his salary or should be included?....
in case, these days are to be considered also for salary calculation, kindly refer me any clause authenticating the same. On such small thing, I don't want to leave/demotivate a good employee.
Waiting for your valuable and quick response on this.......

Following details obtained from Delhi Govt. Labour Department website:

link: Office Of The Labour Commissioner

17. Period of rest (weekly holiday)

: Every employee shall be allowed at least twenty-four consecutive hours of rest (weekly holiday) in every week, which shall, in the case of shops and commercial establishments required by this Act to observe a close day, be on the close day.

18. Wages for the holiday

: No deduction shall be made from the wages of any employee on account of the close day under section 16 or a holiday granted under section 17 of this Act.

If an employee is employed on a daily wage, he shall nontheless be paid his daily wage for the holiday and where an employee is paid on piece rates, he shall receive the average of the wages received during the week.

So, person who joined on 20th Dec'12, will be eligible to get payment for those 2 sundays and Holiday.
