Hi,
One employee of my company has completed 4 years of service, and unfortunately, his death occurred. My question is, is he eligible for gratuity? As per the Gratuity Act, he hasn't completed 5 years in the company. Kindly clarify this for me.
Thanks & Regards,

Dear Stanley,
The clause of 5 years is applicable only in the case the separation is due to resignation, dismissal, or termination but not in the case of death. In the case of death, he is eligible for the gratuity, even if he has worked for 1 year.
