It has now been decided in consultation with Department of Expenditure, to delete the condition that CCL can be availed only if the employee concerned has no Earned Leave at her credit, subject to the following conditions:-

  • (i) CCL may not be granted in more than 3 spells in a calendar year.
  • (ii) CCL may not be granted for less than 15 days.
  • (iii) CCL should not ordinarily be granted during the probation period except in case of certain extreme situations where the leave sanctioning authority is fully satisfied about the need of Child Care Leave to the probationer.
