According to Section 8 of the Payment of Bonus Act, every employee shall be entitled to the bonus to be paid by his employer in an accounting year in accordance with the provisions of this Act, provided that the employee should have worked in the establishment for not less than thirty working days in that year.

The Payment of Bonus Act, 1965 applies to the following categories of employees:

The Hon’ble Allahabad High Court in the matter of Kale Khan Mohammad Hanif vs. Jhansi Bidi Mazdoor Union, 1980 Lab IC 1973 has laid down the settled principle of law that workers who have the option to attend work at the factory premises are entitled to a bonus. The Court further held that it is true that on any particular day, they may choose to attend to the work at the premises of the factory or not. Still, nonetheless, they were employees of the petitioner within the meaning of the Bonus Act since, on those days on which they did work, they worked under the control and supervision of the petitioner.

The mere fact that the payment was on daily wages did not affect their status as employees. Hence, any person who works at the factory will be entitled to a Bonus under the Bonus Act.

The Hon’ble Bombay High Court in the matter of J.K. Ginning & Pressing factory v P.O.  2nd Labour Court (1991) 62 FLR 207 has laid down the settled principle of law that the seasonal worker is entitled to a bonus under bonus act, provided that he should work for more than thirty days.

The Court further held that under Section 8, which relates to the eligibility for a bonus, the only requirement is that the employee should have worked in the establishment for not less than thirty working days in an accounting year. In the present case, the claimants had put in more than thirty working days in an accounting year; it would be highly inequitable to grant a bonus to a worker who had put in only thirty days and allow a bonus at the same rate to another worker who may have worked for a considerably longer period.

Now, if the Legislature has determined the eligibility for bonus by an express provision, it would not be permissible to import these considerations while interpreting the provision relating to eligibility.

According to section 10 of the payment of bonus act, the employer is obliged to pay every employee for that accounting year commencing after the year 1979 and thereafter, every subsequent year, the minimum bonus shall be 8.33% of the net salary of the employee of One Hundred rupees whichever is higher irrespective of the fact that the employer has any allocable surplus in the accounting year.

Under Section 10 of the payment of bonus act, when an employee has not completed the age of fifteen years at the beginning of the accounting year, the employer has to pay either 8.33 % of the employee's net salary or sixty rupees, whichever is higher.

According to section 9 of the Bonus Act, an employee shall be disqualified from receiving a bonus  if he is dismissed from service due to below-mentioned act:

The Hon’ble High Court of Andhra Pradesh has laid down the settled principle of law in the matter of KLJ Plastics Ltd vs. Labour Court –III, Hyderabad, (2002) 3 LLJ 619 Bom.  that the bar of disqualification for bonus is clear and hence, the distinction cannot be drawn from this particular provision. The Court further held that object of the Act also, in my considered opinion, the bar of disqualification for bonus imposed under Section 9 of the Act is a clear and unequivocal bar. If the wording of the provisions also is carefully gone through, a distinction cannot be drawn between the bonus payable subsequent to the order of termination or prior to the order of termination, and the bar applies to the bonus as such payable under the Act.

The Hon’ble Karnataka High Court has laid down the settled principle of law in the matter of Himalaya Drug Co. Makali vs. 2nd  Additional Labour Court, (1986) 52 FLR 704  that the bonus shall be forfeited on for that accounting year in which the employee has committed fraud. The Hon’ble High Court further construed that the right of the management to forfeit bonus on the ground that the workman was dismissed from service for misconduct, more particularly mentioned in Section 9 of the Act, would be only with reference to the accounting year in which the said act of misconduct was committed and not with reference to any year or years preceding or succeeding the accounting year in question.

This one, yes.The Dilbert Comic Strip was published in July of 2003

I was required to take an on-line training course in ISO 9000 by my employer, a computer maker that no longer exists.

I was in the 90 minute class and it crashed.I completed several of the sub-modules despite the software.I had to do a new thing.

The company made the course software.The fact that its own software didn't promote quality was an irony lost on those in charge.

Savings bonds can be transferred to new owners without probate if they were jointly owned or if the owner named a payable-on-death (POD) beneficiary to inherit them. These bonds can be jointly owned, or they can be registered in POD form, but not both; only sole owners can designate a POD beneficiary.

Note: On all Treasury Department forms that are used to transfer ownership of savings bonds, signatures must be "certified" by someone called a certifying officer. It isn't enough to have the signatures notarized. You can usually find a certifying officer in a bank.

If a savings bond names only one person as the owner, then the bond becomes part of the estate when the owner dies. If the will doesn't specifically leave the bond to someone, it passes through the residuary clause of the will, or under state law if there is no valid will.

If you're conducting a probate proceeding for the estate, you can claim savings bonds and other Treasury Department securities using Form 1455, Request by Fiduciary for Distribution of United States Treasury Securities. You'll need to sign it in front of a certifying officer and send it to the Treasury Department with a copy of your letters of administration (issued by the probate court) and a certified copy of the death certificate.

If the estate doesn't go through probate, use Form 5336, Disposition of Treasury Securities Belonging to a Decedent's Estate Being Settled Without Administration to request that the bond be paid out to whoever is entitled to it, or to you on behalf of the inheritor. Include a copy of the death certificate. If the inheritors are claiming the bonds with a small estate affidavit, include a copy; if you're using summary probate procedures, include a copy of the probate court's order. If the value of the bonds in the estate exceeds $100,000, the Treasury Department insists that it go through probate; in most states, an estate that large would have to go through probate anyway.

If a bond was registered in the names of two people, the survivor automatically inherits it when the first owner dies. The survivor has several choices about what to do:

To get a savings bond reissued, the survivor must send a certified copy of the death certificate, the bond, and Form 4000, Request to Reissue United States Savings Bonds, to a Treasury Department retail securities site; they are listed on the website.

Savings bonds are often registered in beneficiary form, which means that the owner named a payable-on-death beneficiary to inherit them. Like a surviving co-owner, a beneficiary has three options:

To get a savings bond reissued, the new owner must send a certified copy of the death certificate, the bond, and Form 4000, Request to Reissue United States Savings Bonds, to a Treasury Department retail securities site.
