MicroPlesk automatically detects these contiguous patterns and applies your custom policy—whether to count the weekend as leave or keep it as regular weekly offs.
MicroPlesk links your leave ledger directly with your statutory payroll run. When an employee takes approved paid leave (CL, SL, EL), full pay is maintained. When Loss of Pay (LOP) days occur, MicroPlesk automatically deducts the proportionate salary from basic pay, recalculates payable days, and adjusts EPF/ESI contributions accordingly.
