What is Carry Forward?

Carry forward is a privilege to utilize the unused leaves of the current year in the following year. 

What is  Sandwich Leave Rules?

Sandwich leave rules refer to the leave policy where leaves are treated as continuous.

For Example

If an employee has taken leave on Friday and Monday and in between falls the two weekly offs i.e, Saturday and Sunday, then these weekly off of 2 days falling between Friday and Monday will also be counted as leave and total no. of leave will be counted as 4. In a nutshell, any weekly off or holidays that falls between EL,CL,SL are sandwiched and counted as leaves in Sandwich Leave Policy.
