Hi Vikram,
Below mentioned is the details:
1. Registration is compulsory for principal employer to employ 10 or more contract labours. Contractor must pay the security deposit at the rate of Rs. 270/- for each workman.
2. If you have received 2 work order for same location/ Premises, then only one license need to be obtained.
3. If you have received work order for 30+ locations, then you need to obtain license location wise based on No of employees (based on applicability).
Feel free to call or revert for any assistance.

Here I would like to add the information as :
1. As per my knowledge and the information what I am getting on the site, the licence by contractor is required if he is employing 20 casual labour instead of 10 (Pl check and confirm)
Now the question is :
i) Employing 20 0r more employees on each site of an employer or 20 for the employer may work on differenct sites, in our case 30+, will be the criteria for obtaining the licence.
2) There are two work orders from one principal employer for working on their different sites - eq. one work order for 15 sites and another one for other 17 sites then the labour licese would be :
i) Two as there are two work order
ii) Only one as there is one principal employer
iii) 32 labour licences (depending upon the no. of casual labour employed) i.e. labour licences for the sites where there would be more than 20 casual labours and no licence for where it is less than 20.
Second issue is :
a. After having labour licence, is it necessary to renew the same, if the no. of workers at the site is reduced below 20 as the job is near completion.
b. Can the same be cancelled as not more than 20 workers would be required on the site hereafter, but befor completion of the job and before getting completion certificate
c. What would be if the licence is not renewed and we go its cancellation after few months after getting completion certificate

Hi Vikram,
As per the act it is 20.
1. Applicable on Employing 20 0r more employees on each site.
2. 32 labour licenses (depending upon the no. of casual labour employed) i.e. labour licenses for the sites where there would be more than 20 casual labours and no license for where it is less than 20.
3. If no of workers are reduced, not required to renew or cancel, But if no of employees increase, you need to amend the license.
4. After completion of job, you can surender the license along with completion certificate.

Hello Praveenji,
Thank you for your prompt reply
There are different diverse views coming on the subject.
As I told you we one principal employer
who has given us as Contactor two contracts
one for 11 sites and another one for 12 sites in Ankleshwar, Gujarat
Diverse views are :
i. We should take one labour licence as there is one principal employer
ii. We should take two labour licences as we have two contracts
iii. We should take 33 licences (As we have 33 sites), depending upon the no. of Labourers employed over there. To take licences only if the labourers exceeds 20
Now my question is :
1. Is the licecence Employer wise, contact wise or sites wise
to determine whether we should apply for one licence, two licences or 33 or less licences depending upon the labourer
2. The labour licence to be obtained on "20 0r more workers are employed or were employed on any day preceding 12 months'
So to start the work there is no need for applying the licence as initially the workers would be less than 20 on any sites or on few sites individually. We can apply for the licence in 12 months once we increase the limit of 20 for the employer / contact or for each separate site

Act provides for obtaining labour licence is applicable to all contactors who employ 20 or more contract labourers.
It means irrespective of sites or contracts or principal employer
once we as contractor employs 20 or more labourers on all the sites under us may under different employers, we need to take labour licence.
Then under the circumstances we should take one labour licence for all the sites, for the emploeyers and need not apply for differnt licences in each state or for sites where we are working.
The sole criteria to be no. of casual workers employed.
Please thro light on this aspect too

Hi Vikram,
It applies:
(a) To every establishment in which twenty or more workmen are employed or were employed on any day of the preceding twelve months as contract labour. So it is applicable to your all sites. Principal employer need to take Registration certificate for every establishment.
(b) to every contractor who employees or who employed on any day of the preceding twelve months twenty or more workmen. Once principal employer obtain registration certificate in form II, he will issue form V to his vendors/ contractors & they will apply for license.
Regarding work order- You have received different work order for different sites, so there is no question of obtaining one license or two. you are going to obtain license based on work order & site. Ex- If for ankleshwar you have received one work order, for that site, you will attach one work order and one form V to obtain license.
Wherever your number of employees are engaged more than permissible limit, then Establishment need to obtain CLRA Registration Certificate and Vendor need to obtain CLRA license.

As regards above we have not received separate work orders for different sites
As I said earlier we have received two work orders
One for 11 sites and another one for 12 sites
Since the work orders are not site wise, one labour licence will be available against one work order for all the 11 sites and another labour licence will be available against another work order for another 12 sites
Is it correct?

Hi Vikram,
With one license how you will deploy people in other sites. Each site need to have labour license. With same work order, you can obtain the labour license for different location. Better get annexure for 2 work order from Principal employer (List of locations with address of the site) which will help you for processing labour license.
Have you got form V & Form II from principal employer? check how many form II they have. whether they have included you as a vendor in all locations or only some locations. This will help you to decide how many locations you need to take license.
Please feel free to call or revert for any clarification.

Vikram,
One License is sufficient if nature of jobs are similar for both the work orders on the following conditions:
1. Date of Commencement of jobs are same.
2. The contract work is to be carried out in same state and Licensing Authority is same.
3. If the Licensing Authority's Jurisdiction is different as per the work you are going to carried out in different locations, then they may insist for obtaining the license under their Jurisdiction.
4. If you are referring to deploy manpower at CNG Stations / outlet then one license is sufficient.
5. As far as my knowledge there is no company in India having 30+ locations (premises) in 1 State where contract work is to be carried out other than Real Estate.
