Applicability of Contract Labour(Regulation & Abolition) Act.
An agreement was entered into between ABC company and XYZ firm (who are into production management) for production work. The raw materials, the specifications and also the machines were provided by the ABC company to XYZ firm at the ABC company factory premises. The Occupier of the ABC company is one of the Directors and the Factory Manager is one of the officer of the ABC company. The rates were fixed for the work. XYZ has full rights to recruit persons he likes to carry out the work. The labour officer on his visit to the factory premises of the ABC company says that provisions of Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act attracts. It is a contract work. The contention of the ABC company is that it is a business-to-business agreement and thus provisions of Contract Labour (Regualtion & Abolition) Act does not attract here.

Sir, please let us know
(1) whether the provisions of Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act is applicable to ABC company in this scenario?

(2) Does it amount to outsourcing of work?

Kindly enlighten us on this issue.

If you read this statement "The raw materials, the specifications and also the machines were provided by the ABC company to XYZ firm at the ABC company factory premises" CLRA applies in this case, because it amounts to outsourcing.
Further the Employees can go to court can claim that they are the Employees of ABC company, because it is managmed by the Employees of ABC Company and there is clear cut demarcation between the two companies.
