My Bank floated a tender for providing security services through open tender, One Security Agency was selected for the same at service charge(agency charge) of 2 %, the total quantity of security guards supplied are 32. The wage structure was as per DGR(director general re-settlement)/ central minimum wages, also he agreed to provide two pairs of uniform to its guards.
when he produced the first bill, it was found without EPF and ESI challans, also in the salary statement of the guards one allowance i.e. Uniform outfit allowance was also missing. On our repeated instruction he has paid the ESI and EPF but now he is adamant for not paying Uniform Outfit Allowance as he is providing free uniform.
he is claiming uniform outfit allowance from us(Bank) but not passing the same to the guards, Now his bill for the month of July is pending(Contract started from 1st July 2015) and he has refused to pay salaries to the guards for the month of August(salaries for the month of july has been paid to guards without outfit allowance).
What should be our action as Principal employer.
