Need Expert Advice
By skdkak closed 1... •
I have an impt question and need expert feedback.
If the last day of annual leave is immediately followed by 3 days of Eid holidays, Are these 3 days considered as part of annual leave?
In my company the HR Dept. calculates the 3 days as extension of annual leave and hence leave without pay.
Is this correct as per the law?
Experts pls guide.
Your HR is correct........
Aana free, jaana free,
Pakde gaye tho khana free.
going by the discussion, it seems my HR is correct in considering Eid off days as my vaccation days if both are clubbed.
Funny thing is if Eid holidays are immidiately after my vaccation then it is considered & if I leave for vaccation immidiately after Eid, then no...
thanks guys. I was about to escalate this issue to my super seniors in company. Guess i have to unnecessary come back fm vaccation and enjoy Doha :((((((
Troll, it isnt just government firms, anything semi-government as well, and if you read the labourt law a little further you will also find that Eid is counted in the annual leave as well.

Tit for tat?
I can see a smile on your face when you caught me for something. :)
I assumed he was working for a govt firm when he asked "Is this correct as per the law?"
Anyways thanks for the info !
skdkak : Hope you got the answer from an expert.. :)
Not all companies fall under the labour law troll, you work in the ministry you should know that.
QP, RasGas, Al Jazeera etc and the rest of the government are not governed by the labour law, they are governed by their own policy with civil law be the deciding factor.
If you are on leave during a holiday, that day is counted as your annual leave. If you return from leave and resume work for one day prior to the Eid holiday then it will not be counted as annual leave. Same goes for maternity leave. Annual leave is paid leave and an public holidays that fall within it are not counted as extra days unless your company has specific policy in this regard.

The worker shall be entitled to annually, leave with full wage as follows:
1.Three working days for Eid EI-Fitr
2.Three working days for Eid Al-Adha
3.One working day for the Independence day
4. Three working days to be specified by the employer.
some people going vacation this September, trying to negotiate with the company to extend 3 days from their planned vacation. for example they were supposed to start vacation by Sept 10 and comeback by Oct. 10 (1 month vacation) and the eid holidays will be from 21-24, they usually come back by Oct. 13. something like that.
No Way.. Dont keep quiet. How can Eid holidays be Leave without Pay? Gift a copy of Qatar Labour Law to your HR department. If they still persist to cut your salary go and see the Labour Department officials...thy will help you.
NO, its a public holiday. So you have get paid for that.
