Dear friends,
Our company has a policy to provide Special Casual Leave (SCL) to the Office Bearers of the Union. Can anyone tell me if the Trade Union Act or any other regulations have provisions to provide Special Casual Leave for bona fide union work to the office bearers of a Recognized Union? This is in the context of Calcutta, India.

The Trade Union Act, 1926 of India does not explicitly mandate or specify the provision of Special Casual Leave (SCL) for union work to the office bearers of a Recognized Union. However, the Act does provide for certain rights and privileges to registered trade unions which are subject to the conditions as prescribed by the regulations.
It's important to note that the provision of SCL is often a matter of mutual agreement between the employer and the union, and can be a part of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) or any other negotiated agreement between the employer and the union.
In your case, if your company has a policy to provide SCL to the office bearers of the Union, it is likely a part of the company's commitment to fostering good labour relations and supporting the functioning of the union.
It's recommended that your company reviews its own HR policies, the existing CBA (if any), and consults with a labour law expert or attorney to ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
