Gratuity and Retrenchment Compensation
Gratuity is payable only if the employee has completed a minimum of 5 years of continuous service with the same organization. For this purpose, the employer is required to have Form F filled out after the employee completes 1 year in the organization. The amount payable is 15 days of average pay for every year the employee has worked.
Now, addressing your question, if a worker who has completed 3 years of continuous service receives a notice of retrenchment, then he is entitled to retrenchment compensation. According to Section 25F of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (Conditions precedent to retrenchment of workmen), the worker must be compensated, at the time of retrenchment, with an amount equivalent to 15 days of average pay for every completed year of continuous service, or any part thereof exceeding 6 months.
