Chandigarh

Leave under the shops Act
Not yet addedThe 2025 amending Act is held and changes hours, registration, penalties and the Schedule; it does not touch the leave provisions, and the principal Act's own text has not been read.Punjab Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, 1958 (Punjab Act No. 15 of 1958), as extended — full text not obtained
Weekly rest
Not yet addedThe 25 June 2024 exemption required “Every employee working in the said shops and establishments shall be given one day rest in a week without making any deduction from his/her wages on account thereof”. That notification has been replaced by one this desk does not hold, so the condition is shown as what the 2024 instrument said rather than as the position today.
