Eid Holidays and leave

Aimie Coelho
By Aimie Coelho

I work in the private sector, and took my leave from the 08th Oct - 22nd Oct, in between which 15th, 16th, 17th was Eid and 18th a Friday.

Is the Eid Holiday & Weekend still considered as paid leave or will it be deducted from my salary?

Please reply soon as I am awaiting my October salary.

i myself working in a private sector and i think that it would be deducted from your salary because you were on leave during this period, it would have paid to you if u were not on leave, besides that u asked about Friday, so if anybody goes on leave for 15 days or one month, so how could he ask for Fridays as he was on leave............

No, they must be considered as paid work days.
