Dear Sir,We have a case of an employee joining post maternity leave. She would like to work some days whenever possible in office and other days from home. This arrangement is for long term or till she is working in the company.
Question
1. Can the employee be considered on pay roll? if yes for how long?
2. Does the company still have the professional tax liability towards the employee in case payment is on hourly basis for work done?
3. Will this arrangement be a considered as break of employment towards gratuity benefit and other long term benefits of employee?
4. Will she have to resign and company have to do full and final settlement and start all over with the same company?
As of now the company needs her skill and she needs some financial support. The company is Pvt Ltd. company with employees less than 10.
thanks and regards
