REGARDING HOLIDAY ON POLL DAY

Dear Seniors Kindly guide me if there is Sunday on election day. Can we get additional holiday against this ?

This is a special holiday to enable the citizens to put their vote. If election day is sunday, employees are not entitled for a Holiday on any other working day.

Dear Praveen
Yes, Mr. Deshai is absolutely right. Just I would like to add for your information that it may be Sunday or any other Holiday observe by your establishment there is no need of any substituted holiday to be provided.
as per legal requirement if any industry comes under “continuous process industries” only short leave may be given just to facilitate the casting of vote even full day leave is not required to be given.

Dear Praveen,
In our organization which is a continous production company, we allow a late coming to the employees of 2 Hrs for casting votes, and the employees who comes 2 Hrs late on the same day are checked if they have really voted from the voters mark on their finger.
