Earned leave means the leave accrued to the employee in proportion of the work done by him. This varies from employer to employer. For example in government sector, the earned leave is 2.5 days for every month worked. This 2.5 days is granted with a view to provide him rest to enable him to recover from the stess and strain endured by him during the course of his work. This can be accumulated and either taken in the subsequent months or encashed as per the rules extant in force.
Sick leaves can't be encashed.
Earn leave simply means saved 'leave period'.
Sick leave can not be considered for earn leave.
e.L is accumolation and is exempted from income tax at the tilme of leaving the service otherwise it is taxable . sick leave can not be encahsed
