Hi, I would request only those members to answer who know the answer. If you have to make assumptions, please don't answer, as it will mislead people looking for information.
Say an organisation runs a 5 day week (Mon-Fri). An employee wants to take leave from Monday to Friday, which means he gets a total leave of 9 days including 5 weekdays and 4 weekends. Does the organisation count the number of leaves as 5 days or 7 days?
Thanks in advance.


I presume that your query is related to an establishment & am answering it on the same presumption.
Please refere to leave provision under you shops act and also rules made there under & read provisions related to leave. You will get the answer to your query.

Dear colleague,
If your query is related to Monthly-rated employee, then he/she is allowed prefixing and suffixing of weekly holidays in many leave rules.
Shop Acts/rules provide for granting at least one day of weekly off which follows preceding 5/6 days of working which is paid weekly off and cannot be treated as part of leave.

Dear Minakshi,
If he will be not present after 7 seven days then it will be calculate 7 days leave. If he present then it will be calculate only 5 days. Even after leave if he will present half day on monday in that case you have to be consider his 5 days leave, but suppose he will not come on monday in that case you should be consider his 7 days leave. The employee must be present before or after one day of weekly off otherwise weekly off will be consider as a leave.
Thanks,

Your query is such that it cannot be answered without "ifs" and 'buts' because the answer to it depends up on different conditions. If you don't have a leave policy at all, then you have to follow the provisions of Shops Act of your State as to how holidays are to be treated in conjunction with leave( assuming your's is a commercial establishment).
If you have a leave policy but it did not provide for as to how holidays are to be treated in conjunction with leave and then the largely prevailing practice and employee friendly practice in the example given by you is as under.
1)In the instant case, the estb.is a Five day working one and if an employee is on leave from Monday to Friday, then Saturday and the Sunday preceding the Monday from which the employee is on leave will have to be excluded.
2) if an employee is on leave from Monday to Friday and reports for duty on the following Monday, then the Saturday and Sunday succeeding the Friday till which he is on leave , will have to be excluded.
3)if an employee is on leave from Monday to Friday and does not report for duty on the following Monday but reports on Tuesday or any other day of the week, then the Saturday and Sunday succeeding the Friday till which he is on leave , will have to be included.
this is my view. any other view is welcome.However practices may differ.
