Is it legal to pay the EOSB in an annual package?

Hi Ludmila,

If a company pension is given as part of a salary package (and one is made to sign it as an alternative to end of service gratuity) is one entitled to end of service gratuity?

I have been told by third parties that I am entitled to claim the end of service gratuity even though I have received annually a company pension payment.

I have worked for this international company since 1999.

Thanking you for your advice.

Best regards

R.

Dear R.,

In general, yes, employees are entitled to end of service gratuity separate from any pension scheme agreements signed.

End of service gratuity cannot be waived before it has become due.

Should you require tailored substantive advice, please reach out to my firm by email for options on moving forward.

Regards,

Ludmila
