It is not permissible for an employee to ask for or accept gifts from suppliers unless authorized by the employer, because "gifts to workers are ill-gotten gains" (ghulul). Therefore, whatever is given to an employee due to their obligatory work falls under this prohibition. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, once reproached a collector of for accepting a gift, clarifying that whoever takes anything from it will bring it forth on the Day of Judgment.
