Why a leave calculator matters

Unused earned leave may lapse or exceed a carry-forward limit, depending on your employer's policy. This leave calculator shows your remaining balance, usage %, monthly safe limit and a planning suggestion so you can use leaves intentionally.

Check each leave policy

Earned, casual, sick, parental and compensatory leave can have different accrual, eligibility, carry-forward and encashment rules. There is no universal allowance by company size. Use your written policy and applicable law, and calculate separate leave buckets separately.

Smart leave planning

The calculator returns a monthly balance: divide remaining leaves by months left so you don't cluster everything in December. Pair single leaves with long weekends to maximize travel days. Use the PTO Planner for vacation planning around public holidays.

Frequently asked questions

How is remaining leave calculated?
Remaining = Annual Leave + Carry Forward − (Used + Sick Used + Casual Used).
How many leaves per month should I take?
Monthly balance = Remaining ÷ Months left in the financial / calendar year.
Can I carry forward unused leaves?
Carry-forward eligibility, caps and expiry vary by leave type, employer and applicable law. Check your written policy.
Does sick leave count in the same bucket?
This calculator subtracts the sick and casual leave amounts you enter from the combined balance. If your employer uses separate leave buckets, calculate each bucket separately.
What is leave encashment?
Leave encashment converts eligible unused leave to money. Eligibility, salary basis, divisor and tax treatment depend on the applicable law and policy.
