Facts of the Case
Background
The appellants, former employees of Mukundi Plastics and Bevpak, received pension benefits up to 2008 and gratuity for the period 2008-2013. They argued that the pension was less favourable than the gratuity and claimed gratuity for the pre-2008 period. The arbitrator dismissed their claim, leading to this appeal.
