12 June 2013Kindly hekp me in the following issue-
A person had been employed in the company for 2yrs 7months, then after he joined other company by the Consent of the former employer. Now the question in this regard has come is that whether the said employee shall be considered as being in the continuous service for 5 yrs. As the second service is now for 3 yrs (Total Service - 2.7 +3 yrs = 5.7 Yrs)
Thanking you in anticipation

Dear Gaurav,
Continuous service would mean continous service under the same employer. Please reffer to the act as mentioned in the link

Hi
whether he has rejoined after a break in service or there was continuation of service?
In case of continuation of service without break, he is eligible for Gratuity. Even if there was one day break in service he is not eligible for Gratuity.
It is applicable only if he is on payroll of same company.
Thanks
