Hi
We provide free food for our company workers through a hotel and the bill is being paid on monthly basis. Whether this amount is covered by EPF? Or if we pay equivalent food value along with their wages in the name of \"food allowance\", or \"tiffin allowance\" or lunch allowance\", will these allowances be covered under EPF?
Suitable suggestions are appreciated.
