A settlement with one unit did not oust the Tribunal's power to frame a gratuity scheme, and a unit-wise scheme was valid on the facts. Gratuity was to be computed on basic wages, not consolidated wages, and the reference did not extend to fixation of superannuation. Gratuity could be forfeited only for serious misconduct involving violence or riotous or disorderly behaviour, with employer loss deductible where appropriate.
