Gratuity eligibility of a worker who died accidentally having rendered only 8 month’s service in 11 months contract?
From India, Bengaluru
In the death cases the service conditions attached to payment of gratuity will not be applicable. Therefore, you should pay gratuity considering a service of one year. The amount will be 15 days salary. If you have taken any death cum gratuity scheme, forward the matter to the insurer.

If the accident resulting in death has happened during the course of employment, then his dependents should be paid compensation as is required under Employees Compensation Act. If covered by ESI, inform the ESI of the accident and death. The ESIC will take care of the compensation part.
