Can Any one Help me to know whether the Sundays & national Holidays are to be included in Exam leave or not for the purpose of Leave Calculation as per Institute Rule?
What if the Firms Policy suggests to include for leave calculation?
In order to prepare for the examinations of the Institute, a trainee is granted leave for a period of 2 months or to the extend of leave due, whichever is less. However, the trainee should make an application for such leave at least 15 days in advance. The days on which a trainee appears for the examination conducted by the Institute (including intervening holidays) are counted as a period on duty.
An articled assistant shall work 35 hours per week. The MIT / Principal may observe a 5 day week for articled trainees. Therefore, per day working hour in a 5 day week works out to be 7 hours per day.
The MIT / Principal may also work in a 6 day week schedule. In such a case, an articled assistant has to work at least 6 hours per day for 5 days and the balance 5 hours on the sixth day.
The working hours specified above should not be before 9.00 a.m. and after 7.00 p.m.
if an articled assistant is required to work beyond normal working hours, and aggregate of such hours exceed 35 hours per week (excluding lunch break), he/she shall be entitled to compensatory leave calculated with reference to number of completed working hours, over above, 35 hours per week.
