F.R. 104

Leave to an apprentice

[(1) Under the Subsidiary Rule under Rule 104 an apprentice will be eligible in each year of apprenticeship for leave on half pay on medical certificate upto a maximum of one month but no accumulation of such leave is admissible].

[G.O.Ms. No. 1318, Development, Dt. 9-9-1926]

[(2) Apprentice on confirmation cannot count their apprentice period for leave as if it had been service rendered substantively in a permanent post. They are governed by Subsidiary Rule 3 under Rule 104 which provides only for leave during the apprentice period]. [C.C.A's. Letter No. 42-A-248/31, Dt. 3-2-1932 to A.G., Central Revenues, communicated with his Endt. No. 42-218/31, Dt. 4-2-1932]

Leave to an approved probationer

[(3) An approved probationer can be granted leave only if he would have otherwise continued on duty]. [G.O.Ms. No. 2677, Home, Dt. 13-5-1939]

Note : —There is, however, no objection to more than one approved probationer being reckoned against the same vacancy if they are granted leave concurrently.

(a) Probationer means a Government servant recruited with a view to substantive appointment to the cadre of a department on completion of his period of probation.

(b) Apprentice means a person deputed for training in a trade or business with a view to employment in Government service, who draws pay at monthly rates from Government during such training but is not employed in or against a substantive vacancy in the cadre of a department.

(2) Leave may be granted to a probationer, who has not completed his period of probation, in accordance with the provisions of Subsidiary Rule 2 under Rule 103(a). If however, the probationer has completed the period of his probation and is awaiting appointment as a full member of the service, he may be granted such leave as would be admissible to him if he held his post substantively otherwise than on probation. The rule does not apply to probationer in the last grade service.

(3) Leave of the following kinds may be granted to an apprentice :—

(a) On medical certificate, leave on leave salary equivalent to half average pay for a period not exceeding one month in any year of apprenticeship.

(b) Extraordinary leave under the A.P. Revised Rules, 1933.
