Thanks a ton for your help in the past. I am looking out for the yearly leave break up which I believe has been updated recently. The earlier document stated that there were 21 earned leave in a year, however Ive heard that the updated rule is 15days in a year (5 leaves for every 4 months). Can someone help me with the break up of leaves entitled for an employee/year eg Festival leave, Sick leave, Earned leave and casual leave with any supporting document to prove the same.
Thanks for your help in advance.
