If you are hiring labour through cotnractor then you need to register your firm as per provision of contract labour act. regards, Nirav patel.

If you are engaging workmen for a specific period in your own pay roll it is called Fixed Term appointment which is entirely different from contract labour. Though there exists a contract with the employees for a certain period, say one year or completion of a project, it is not a contract labour but is only a Fixed Term Employment.
The provisions of Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act will become applicable only when you engage workers through a contractor under which there doesnot exist any employer employee relationship between you and the workmen who are workmen of the contractor only. In that case you have to get registration to engage workmen through contractor provided you plan to engage at least 20 such workmen. In otherwords, if your plan is to engage less than 20 workmen there is no need to get registration under the CLRA Act.
Regarding payment of maternity benefits, I would like to say that an establishment wherein women are employed is expected to comply with the provisions of Maternity Benefit Act under which it is mandatory to grant maternity leave with wages upto 12 weeks for women workers who have worked at least for 80 days during a period of 12 months immediately preceding the date of delivery. In addition to the leave there is a provision of making a payment of Rs 1000. In my understanding construction company is not exempted from the operation of Maternity Benefit Act though the workers engaged at sites are exempted from ESI whereas the establishment will be covered by ESI if the regular workers who sign the muster rolls of the company exceed 20.

You are right Madhu. Whoever engaged under Contract basis is not a labour. If the company engages more than 20 worker then only the question of registration and obtaining license arises.

If it is for Temporary Employment in your concern with a clear Starting and End Date and a termination clause CLRA registration can be dispensed with.

If you engage a total of 20 numbers of contract workers through all the contractors taken together you should take registration under the CLRA Act. Similarly, if you engage at least five interstate migrant employees you have to get registration under the Interstate Migrant Workmen (Regulation of employment and conditions of service) Act, 1976.
