Two separate ceilings
Home leave accumulates up to 90 days and sick leave up to 45 days (Section 49(1)). They are separate caps, not one shared 90-day limit.
Encashment
Accumulated home and sick leave is paid as a lump sum when the employee leaves or dies (Section 49(2)), at the last basic salary. Days above the ceilings are paid at year end (Section 49(3)). Basic ÷ 30 for the daily rate is common payroll practice.
