The Contract Labour is entitled for leaves as per the Shops & Establishment Act of the State/territory where is deployed, save and except carry forward. Contract - Fixed Term Employment being for a specified period, usually for an year or so, the average entitlement for an year would be in the range of 29 days i.e. 7 CL, 7 SL and 15 PL. If the employee is covered by ESI, the sick leave will be governed by the ESI regulations. If the employee is women, she will also be entitled to Maternity leave as per the Maternity Benefit Act.
