June 9, 2023 admin 2 Comments

Dopt Orders on Leave: Earned Leave, Half Pay Leave, Child Care Leave and Work Related Illness and Injury Leave

The Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) has issued new orders regarding various types of leave entitlements for employees. These orders include Earned Leave, Half Pay Leave (HPL), Child Care Leave (CCL), and Work Related Illness and Injury Leave (WRIIL). The Central Civil Services (Leave) Rules, 1972 have been amended to reflect these changes. In addition, a notification has been issued regarding leave entitlements as per the 7th Central Pay Commission’s recommendations, providing employees with updated information on their leave benefits.

What is WRIIL Leave?

WRIIL, which stands for ‘Work Related Illness and Injury Leave’, is a leave entitlement that serves as a substitute for the ‘Special Disability Leave for Injury Intentionally inflicted’ Leave under Rule No.44. This leave is granted to employees who suffer from work-related illnesses or injuries that require medical attention and rest. The purpose of this leave is to provide financial and medical support to employees during their recovery period, ensuring that they can return to work in good health. It is crucial for employers to understand their employees’ WRIIL entitlements and facilitate the process of accessing this leave as part of their duty of care towards their workers.
