Gratuity is a lump-sum payment an employer makes to a worker at the end of service as a reward for the length of his employment.
What does Gratuity mean in plain words?
When a workman resigns or is terminated for a reason other than misconduct, the Standing Orders entitle him to gratuity of 30 days' wages for every completed year of service, or any part more than six months. If the employer runs a qualifying provident fund, no gratuity is payable for the period it covered. The Standing Orders apply to industrial and commercial establishments with 20 or more workmen.
