I am working in a firm in which passed my 06 month of probation period and eligible to get the benefits of paid leaves as per offer letter.
Now firm is paying just half of paid leave calculating after probation period and saying that these Paid leave are neither can be en-cashed nor carried forward in next year. These will laps if not consumed by employee with in year.
My points are :
1. Why PL calculated after 6 month whenever PF Contribution applicable from 1st day?
2. Is payment of leave in cash is unlawful if not consumed ?

Before posting a query, you shall disclose your identity for more replies. Is your Firm a registered company? How many employees working there? PF will be counted from 1st day. but to get PL you have to work for a minimum period of service one year( in some organisations) and half year (in some organisations).
