The term used in the Act is "Wages" (rather than "wager," which usually refers to a bet). Under Section 2(vi), "Wages" means all remuneration capable of being expressed in terms of money which would be payable to a person employed in respect of his employment.
Includes: Any remuneration payable under an award/settlement, overtime work, holiday pay, and any sum payable upon termination.
Excludes: The value of house accommodation (electricity/water), pension/provident fund contributions, travelling allowance, and gratuity payable on discharge.
