OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Aizawl, the 18th June, 2015.
After due consideration of the matter regarding Child Care Leave and in
continuation to this Department’s Office Memorandum of even no dated 13.4.2011, the
Governor of Mizoram is pleased to extend the facility of Child Care Leave to women
employees under the Government of Mizoram on the following conditions –
1. Women employees having minor children may be granted Child Care
Leave by an authority competent to grant leave, for a maximum period of two
years (i.e. 730 days) during their entire service for taking care of upto two
children whether for rearing or to look after any of their needs like examination,
sickness etc. Child Care Leave shall not be admissible if the child is eighteen
years of age or older. During the period of such leave, the women employees
shall be paid leave salary equal to the pay drawn immediately before
proceeding on leave. It may be availed of in more than one spell. Child Care
Leave shall not be debited against the leave account. Child Care Leave may also
be allowed for the third year as leave not due (without production of medical
certificate). It may be combined with leave of the kind due and admissible.
2. i) CCL cannot be demanded as a matter of right. Under no circumstances can any
employee proceed on CCL without prior proper approval of the leave by the
leave sanctioning authority.
ii) The leave is to be treated like the Earned Leave and sanctioned as such.
iii) Consequently, Saturdays, Sundays, Gazetted holidays etc. falling during the
period of leave would also count for CCL, as in the case of Earned Leave.
iv) CCL can be availed only if the employee concerned has exhausted all her
Earned Leave at her credit.
This order will be effective from the date of issue and will be in force until
further order.
