Dear Khola,
With regards to your reply to Manohara, saying that an employee who has reached 4yrs and 6 months of continuous service is not entitled of gratuity yet. Does it mean that an employee can be entitled for a full gratuity payment only when he or she has reached 4 yrs and 6 months and 1 day? in which according the labor law that 6 months and 1 day is considered as complete 5 yrs. Please correct me if i'm wrong.
thank you very much.
cheers!

Dear Eileen,
According to section 4 of the P G Act, 1972 an employee is required to complete five years of continuous service for becoming eligible for receiving gratuity from the employer. Now coming to the point of calculation we are to see that for every completed of service or part thereof in excess of six months, the employer shall pay gratuity to an employee at the rate of fifteen days wages based on the rate of wages last drawn by the employee concerned. For more details you may go through section 4 of this Act.
