Gratuity

Employment gratuity is a payment that may be due to a worker in some employment systems, often subject to eligibility and service conditions.

What to know in practice

There is no single rule that applies to every country or job. Check the employment contract and current official labour guidance for the relevant jurisdiction.

Do not rely on a recruiter’s verbal estimate as a legal entitlement. Ask the employer to explain the written terms and seek qualified advice when needed.
