We provide free food for our company workers through a hotel, and the bill is being paid on a monthly basis. Whether this amount is covered by EPF or if we pay the equivalent food value along with their wages in the name of "food allowance," "tiffin allowance," or "lunch allowance," will these allowances be covered under EPF?

Suitable suggestions are appreciated.
