Dear Friends,
I have recently joined an EPC company in Chennai.
I would like to know if there is a compendium of Labour Laws applicable in a Project Site. Projects are usually of 18-24 months duration.
The details required are
1. Applicable Provisions of Various Labour Laws
2. Implications of Non compliance
3. Forms/Returns
I need this to educate my Project Managers/Engineers/Site Engineers to ensure better compliance.
Thank you.

Dear Mr.Chakravarthy

If your core business is undertaking various construction projects, there are some statutory obligations to be complied with regarding engagement of contract labour in the site.

1) Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act, 1970

The Principal Employer, for whom you undertake the project has to obtain Registration Certificate for engaging contract workmen through various contractors from the Assistant Commissioner of Labour, Office of Deputy Commissioner of Labour. You have to apply in Form 1 under Rule 17(1) of the Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) 1970 along with the details of contractors, maximum number or workmen to be engaged under each contractor and the nature of work etc.

After obtaining the RC by the Principal Employer, you have to submit Application for License (In case if you engage more than 20 persons in that site) in Form IV. This should be submitted along with Form V duly signed by the Principal Employer.

2) Inter State Migrant workmen (Regulation of Employment & Conditions of Service) Act, 1979.

If you engage workmen migrated from other states, you have to comply with the provisions of the above said Act.

The Appropriate Authority and the procedures are same that of Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act.

Please revert for further clarifications.

Thanks & Regards

We are a EPC company having one year’s factory renovation work at Nagpur. We have deputed this contract to our some contractor for performing these jobs with supervision by our 6-7 employees at site.
My queries are:
We have to ask contractor to compliance under WC Act by deploying workers for 180 days and again changes in register or ask them to take ESIC code.
If taken WC benefits, what formalities and checks to be required to compliance under ACT. Or
If taken ESIC, than how it will be process for only for one year.
Please suggest.
