No pay leave in May – HRSINGAPORE

QUESTION

Dear HR Community,

We have an employee who is on no-pay leave for the whole month of May.

The month of May 2020 is from the 1st to the 31st. And the employee works a five and a half (5.5) day week.

Hence no-pay leave is 6 days per week since Saturday is considered a full working day.

So, is the number of days of no pay leave 23 days or 23.5 days?

Please advise. Thank you.

Best regards,

Adeline

Hi Adeline,

it should be 23.5 days of NPL. Correct me if I am wrong.

If its unpaid leave for the whole month, you can put aside the number of working days.

May 2020 has a total of 23.5 workdays based on 5.5 day work week.

Regards,

Linda
