All employees can have seven sick days per year.
The amount of maternity leave depends on the number of children that a mother already has. If she is expecting her first or second child, she is entitled to twelve weeks of maternity leave (two before the birth and ten after). If she is expecting her third child (or any number above that), she is entitled to six weeks of maternity leave (two before the birth and four after).
There is no legal entitlement to paternity leave in Sri Lanka.
Terminating an employee's contract for a non-disciplinary reason typically needs the Commissioner of Labor's written approval.
