Tamil Nadu (Volume III) -- Annual Leave with wages ( sec.79 and chapter VIII) - as per the Factories Act 1948?

Greetings. There is confusion about number of allowed leave days in a calendar year as per the Factories Act 1948. Please provide input on that. Possibly with factory laws applicable in Tamil Nadu (Volume III) -- Annual Leave with wages ( sec.79 and chapter VIII).
Ours is company in the General Engineering Industry in Tamil Nadu.

Thanks, Saseendran

A worker in any factory in india will get 1 days leave for every 20 days worked in the previous calendar year (with some restrictions for those who didn't work the full year).

I think your problem starts really from 2 other acts you need to see.

1. If Standing Orders applies to you, then you need to give the number of days of leave provided in the standing orders (which would provide CL, SL, PL)

2. Tamil Nadu Festival Holidays act will have specific provisions for providing leave to employees as mentioned in it.

Check out both and see what applies to you beyond the 1 in 20 rules of factories act.
