Clarification issued by PF Dept in ‘2005 requirng the inclusion of Leave Encashment for PF contributions

November 22, 2007 2613 Views 0 comment Print

Provident fund contributions need not be deducted from the payment made towards annual leave encashment, the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court has ruled. Allowing a batch of writ petitions filed by various factories, Justice K. Chandru said leave encashment could not be considered part of the basic wage for deducting provident fund contributions. Employees usually did not exhaust their earned leave; they chose to encash them at the time of retirement, or the sum was paid to their heirs in case of contingency such as the death of an employee. Hence, they would not be benefited at all by provident fund deduction from the encashment of annual leave.
