Dear Seniors,
Eligibility of Gratuity for contract labor. The case is as follows: Mr. X is a contract employee working with ABC Company (Contractor).
1. Mr. X was deputed to one company (principal employer_1) and worked for 3 years (01-01-2001 to 31-12-2003).
2. The contractor then shifted Mr. X to another company (principal employer_2) where he worked for 3 years (01-01-2004 to 31-12-2006).
My question is: Is Mr. X eligible for Gratuity or not? My confusion arises from the fact that he worked continuously for 6 years with different principal employers through the contractor. Please clarify.
Regards,

CLRA or BOCW acts are made specially for contract labors, because their duty is not fixed, and their payout is mostly consolidated of all leaves / bonus / and other incentives .
Dear Colleague,
Yes, he is eligible for gratuity. He has apparently completed more than 5 years with the same employer (the Contractor, who is his immediate Employer) though his stint with the two client employers is 3 years each.

As per your statement, there is no discontinuation of services for the contract employee who was engaged from 01-01-2001 to 31-12-2006. Hence, undoubtedly, the contract employee is entitled to payment of gratuity.
Thank you.
