West Bengal Shops and Establishments Act, 1963

On termination
A person whose services are terminated by the shopkeeper or employer is entitled to wages for the privilege leave standing to their creditThis comes from the Labour Department's reprint of the Act in the West Bengal Labour Gazette 2011. Its footnotes run to the amending Act of 2002, so an amendment after that would not appear in this copy; and the scan carries a previous reader's yellow highlighting on the page dealing with the recovery of wages. Neither affects the figures above, and both are said here so the copy can be judged.Section 12
During service
Not yet addedThe Act provides for accumulation, not encashment: privilege leave banks up to twenty-eight days and sick leave to fifty-six
