Leaves - Establishments Act

Hello
Can anyone tell me what is the minimum no. of leaves which any company has to grant to its employees?
My organisation is covered under AP Shops & Establishments Act, and the act provides maximum leaves of CL=12 and SL=12.
There is no minimum limit specified anywhere.

As Per Shop And Establishment Act you have to provide minimum 24 leaves to employee. and if he is taking more then 24 leaves in a year so u can deduct it from paid leaves.

Hello Priya
Thank you for your response.
However, I would like o draw your attention towards Sec-30(5) of the Act which reads as follows:
"Every employee in any establishment shall also be entitled during his first twelve months of continuous service and during every subsequent twelve months of service (a) to leave with wages for a period not exceeding twelve days on the ground of any sickness or accident and (b) to casual leave with wages for a period not exceeding twelve days on any reasonable ground."
The words used in the section are "period not exceeding 12 days"-- which means the maximum number of leaves permitted are 12.
Kindly share your thoughts.

With regards to Leave it is always maximum utilization so there is no minimum limit for leaves. If any employee is not taking any sick leave or casual leave during the year it will lapse automatically. Hope that the query is resolved
