LEAVE APPLICATION PROCESS

Earned Leave

Every employee is eligible to take earned leave only on confirmation on pro-rata basis. On confirmation, every employee is eligible to take 20 days of earned leave in a calendar year.

Step 1: The employee needs to plan for their leave well in advance.

Step 2: Before availing the leave the employee needs to inform the Project Manager and the HR desk about the leave.

Step 3: The leave should be approved by the project Manager / team manager, and only the same should be forwarded to the HR desk. Non-availability of the approval would be treated as un-authorized leave, and attract LWP.

Step 4: If the employee is traveling out of the station, then the contact number and address should be provided to the HR function representative before proceeding on leave.

Casual Leave

During probation every employee is eligible for 6 days of casual leave on pro-rata basis. On confirmation, every employee is eligible to take 10 days of casual leave in a calendar year.

Step 1: If an employee wants to take leave for short duration then the above mentioned process should be followed.

Leave taken without informing the necessary authorities, would be treated as Leave without Pay.

Step 2: In case of emergency, where the necessity to take leave arises without prior approval, the employee needs to call and inform their respective managers.

Step 3: In case you are not able to inform the Project Manager or the HR representative, please inform the front desk and request them to send the mail to your respective Project Manager/ HR Manager.
