Hi Folks
I need your suggestion on this issue
We are in Construction line, the nature of operation requires working on Sundays also. We have employed more than 1000 Casual Employees (Employed through a contractor)
The issue
Case One
The casual labour worked with us through contractor, for 4 almost 4.5 years, whether he is eligible for gratuity, in case the contractor fails to pay the grautity, whether we need to pay the same as Prinicipal employer
All thorugh this years , he had worked for us under the same contractor
Case Two
The casual labour worked with us through 2 contractors with 1st contractor for 2.5 years and with the second for 4 almost 2.5 years, whether he is eligible for gratuity, in case the contractor fails to pay the grautity, whether we need to pay the same as Prinicipal employer
All thorugh this years , he had worked for us as a Casual labour
In both the cases as the nature of work requires, both the employees have worked for 240 days every year
your valuable views pls
Regards
R Sudhakar
