New Wage Code: There is good news for the employed people. The mandatory requirement of 5 years for gratuity in the job may be over. The government is preparing for this. It is being claimed in media reports that if the government implements the rules of the new labor code, then it can change the rules of gratuity.
It is being said that there may be a new condition for one year’s job instead of 5 for gratuity, but no statement has come from the government in this regard yet.
Gratuity is available on a job of 5 years
Actually, gratuity is given to the employee for working more than 5 years in a company. It is given to the employees under a fixed formula. During work, a small part of gratuity is deducted from the salary of the employee and a large part is given by the company.
Waiting for the implementation of the new wage code, let us tell you that everyone is waiting for the new wage code. Updates keep coming from time to time regarding this.

Wage codes will be implemented in a phased manner According to media reports, it is planned to implement them sequentially from October 1, 2022. That is, on the basis of the number of drafts ready, different codes will be implemented in a phased manner.
