We approached union leader regarding this he is saying that company has already taken legal opinion in this that the company cannot issue gift card to expired employees.Gift card is issued to all the vrs employees among them my father is one employee.Company management decided to issue gift card to all the vrs employees who are part of agreement but not willing to issue to expired employees as they are eligible just because they are expired hus spouse is not entitled for it.As expired employee given services like all other employees can company management show such discrimination between them.My question here is can company management do so by not issuing gift card to the spouse of expired employee as this employee is a part of the agreement like all other employees. Can company management do so by giving a cause of employee expired they are not bound to do it.

    If the issuance of the Gift Card was delayed by the company which was supposed to be disbursed when your father was alive, in such circumstances you would be required to send a legal notice to the company demanding the legitimate entitlement. The same should be supportive of the rules framed by the organisation regarding issuance of Gift Card. Go through the terms and conditions and take a decision appropriately.
