Dear HR Fraternity,
Greetings of the day
I have a query regarding liability of principal employer towards Gratuity. A Coal Mining company is going to bind-up its business due to cancellation of lease. There are about 500 contractual workers who have legitimately qualified for Gratuity.
My question is whether Contractor or principal employer is liable for payment of Gratuity. In case contractor denies to pay the Gratuity, should principal employer to make the payment???
Regards,
Raj Kaurav
