no.. according to the employment act the employer has to pay the encashment. he doesnt have any right to make policy. it is an enacted law. from valbooj

Sir Our company is having PF Trust. We are paying only 8.33% to EPF office for Pension . Now we have paid Leave encashment to a left employee. Some one told me that 12% of leave encashment amount to be paid to EPF authrities for pension fund. Is it true. Kindly clarify. Suresh

Leave Encashment Rules

Sowmya Pillai (HR Executive) 22 February 2008

Hi Valbooj, Is there any particular law for leave encashment.. B'coz wat i heard was it varies from company to company according to their leave policy..some companies dont encash and carry fwd the leaves.. for example in my company we carry forward the remaining leaves to the next year.. I would appreciate if u can clear my doubt..

It depends on the Company Policy. In some Companies they allow acccumalation upto 42 days and ask balance to be consumed. This 42 days is payable at the time of resignation or retirement whichever is earlier. I believe the PL encashment is tax free. But some companies deducted tax and expect the employee to file returns and claim refund. I do not know if this is the best practice.

Hi Leave policy differs from company to company and levae policies are guided by Factories act for industry employers and shops and estd act for shop employees.u better go to the provisions. bynlarge companies casual leave can not be considered for accumulation and encashment.For motivating attendance some employers give encashment .Earenled leave or previlage leave only considered for accumulation and some parts of the leave may be encashed by requestion letter from the employee. Better try to give fav to employee and also to empr so that both of them win-win as a middle man u have to derive a policy like that.

If I say, My company has a policy of "use it or lose it " for privilage leaves. Then the leaves should not be necessarily carried forward.

I have resigned from an educational institute after serving 12 years as principal. I was entitled for an annual Earned leave of 33 days and at the time of leaving the organisation, i had about 300 earned leave in my credit. I could not avail the leave because of exigencies of work. Am I entitled to claim for encashment of earned leave if not for all the 300 days , atleast for the last 5 years. Please clarify.
