There can be no condition against the statute. [Dewan's Modern Breweries Ltd. v. Industrial Tribunal & Ors., 1973 Lab.I.C. 129 (J&K)]. The employees at the Head Office are entitled to bonus at the same rate at which the workers of factory have been given by virtue of settlement. [Hindustan Construction Co. Ltd. v. G.K. Potankar & Anr., A.I.R. 1976 S.C.907]. Employees working on part-time basis are eligible for bonus. [Arun Mills Ltd. v. Dr. Chandra Parshad C. Trivedi, (1976) 32F.L.R. 323]. A probationer is eligible for bonus. [Bank of Madura Ltd. v. Bank of Madura Employees' Union. 1970 Lab. I.C. 1215]. Every employee is entitled to bonus. [Mahabir Tiles Work v.
