Dear Seniors, An employee left service after completion of 5 years 8 months. Through his 5th year of service he was absent continuously for 06 months due to his personal reasons and no salary paid for this period.
In this case how we can calculate Gratuity. Under section 2A, an employee rendering continuous service for a period of 240 days in a year will be deemed to have continued in service for one year. In this case, is the following calculation correct ?
Date of joining : 01.06.2008
Date of leaving : 28 Feb 2014
Absented himself without leave (without pay) : 6 months from 16.08.2012 to 28.02.2013
Total years of service = 1/6/2008 to 28/2/2014 , 5 yrs 9 months
minus - continuous absent period 06 months
hence total service 5 years 3 months.
Is it correct paying gratuity for 5 years? or is it mandatory to pay 6 years gratuity.
Sir, your immediate advice is very helpful.
