" 9. Effect of non-registration.- No principal employer of an establishment, to which
this Act applies, shall--
(a) in the case of an establishment required to be registered under section 7, but which has not been registered within the time fixed for the purpose under that section,
(b) in the case of an establishment the registration in respect of which has beenrevoked under section 8, employ contract labour in the establishment after the expiry of the period referred to in clause (a) or after the revocation of
registration referred to in clause (b), as the case may be.

(3) A licence granted under this Chapter shall be valid for the period specified therein and may be renewed from time to time for such period and on payment of such fees and on such conditions as may be prescribed.
Qn.3. is Certified Standing Order of company applicable or ?
= Answer to this is as in Qn.1.
Qn.4. shall the contractor follows the Concern company Certified Standing Order to initiate disciplinary action against their workmen?
= The Principal Employer bound to instruct the Contractor to proceed as per the rules applicable therein. However the PE doesn't prosecute the contract labour directly.
Qn.5. what is the procedure to follow for terminating his contract workmen.
= As I said in 4 above, the Principal Employer however will not directly take any disciplinary action against the erring contract workmen, instead will issue necessary report/facts of the case to the contractor for appropriate action as per the rule applicable to the contract labour.

Dear AM,
Generally, the Contract Labor System is a form of indirect labor through the practice of outsourcing of certain activities of an industrial establishment for one or more reasons like economy, specialisation, flexible hire and fire, elimination of constant and close supervision etc. Under this outsourcing arrangement which can either be the entire activity or the man power only, the establishment which gets the services is the outsourcer and the other who renders the service is the outsourcee.
Let me first present the picture of a Contractor's Establishment with reference to the essential nature of its activity.
(1) If the activity of an establishment is manufacturing or rendering service on behalf of any other person/entity in the latter's place of business or a mere supply of labor to one or more such entities under a contract for service, the relationship between the two becomes that of contract for service, such an establishment becomes a Contract Labor Establishment and the workmen employed therein are its direct labor. In the context of the CLRA Act,1970 which comes into play, the outsourcer becomes the Principal Employer, the outsourcee becomes the Contractor and the labor of the contractor becomes Contract Labor.
(2) Alternatively, however, only the entire outsourced activity can be left to the outsourcee i.e the contractor to be done at his own facility or premises. In such a situation, the CLRA Act,1970 has no application despite the subsistence of a contract for service between the outsourcer and the outsourcee.
It automatically implies that there exists a direct employer- employee relationship between the outsourcee i.e the contractor and his labor. So, for all practical purposes, the contractor's establishment becomes an industrial establishment and hence the application of all the labor laws including the IE(SO)Act,1946 subject to the criteria for coverage. Thus I think that I've answered your questions with serial nos. 1,2 and 5.
Regarding q.nos. 3 and 4, "No" is the answer since there is no direct employment relationship between the PE and the Contract Labor.

Dear Colleague,
The Contractor referred to in this post is engaging 300 workers and perhaps must have registered his establishment under State Shops and East Act. Therefore, the Industrial Empl Standing Orders Act/Rules will apply to his establishment.
Until such time certified standing orders are in place, the Model Standing Orders have to be followed by him.
The certified standing orders , if any, of the Principal Employer ,will not apply to him.
For disciplinary action against the contract worker, he will have to follow provisions of the Model Standing Orders and principles of natural justice.

Dear Colleague,
The Standing Order is nothing but a guidelines/constitution of an establishment. The applicability of SO is both for the employee on direct roll or contractual as per their rules framed in SO by the employer.
The establishment of Contractor can have their own SO if the engagement is 100 or more.
