Dear Sir/Ma'am,
My brother has worked for 4 years 11 months and 17 days in his previous employment. Is he entitled for gratuity? because as per law, calculation for completion of year will be - worked for more than 6 months will be considered completed year.
Please guide as they are not paying him the same under the argument of not completing 5 years.
