THE PAYMENT OF GRATUITY ACT, 1972
Gratuity is a kind of retirement benefit, like provident fund or pension.

•It is a payment intended to help the employee after his retirement. The general principle underlying gratuity schemes is that by faithful service over a long period the employee is entitled to claim a certain benefit. Thus it is earned by an employee as a reward for long and meritorious service. The Act was passed in 1972 by parliament. It has been amended to keep up with the times.
04/25/09 14 IRLL - Labour Laws

OBJECTIVE
•Prior to 1972, various states had enacted their own gratuity laws. It became necessary, therefore, to have a Central Law so as to ensure a uniform pattern of gratuity to the employees

throughout the country. (Also, to avoid different treatment to the employees of establishments having branches in one or more states).
04/25/09 15 IRLL - Labour Laws

COVERAGE
•The Act provides for a scheme of compulsory payment of gratuity by managements o
f

factories, mines, oilfields, plantations, ports, railways, shops and other establishments employing 10 or more persons in the event of super-annuation, retirement, resignation and death or disablement due to accident or disease. In case of death of the employee, gratuity payable to him will be payable to his nominee or if no nomination is made, it will be paid to his heirs.
04/25/09 16

AMOUNT OF GRATUITY
•It is calculated at the rate of 15 days salary for every year of completed service, subject to a maximum of Rs. 3,00,000. 15 days salary is calculated on the basis of a 26- day month. •The employer should arrange to pay the amount of gratuity within 30 days from the date it becomes payable to the person to whom the gratuity is payable.
04/25/09 17 IRLL - Labour Laws
