Hi,
I am a very junior, but this is my opinion to this situation and the precautions to avoid such a situations. Please listen to the more experienced views.
It is the principal employers responsibility to ensure whether the contractor complied the statutory. If not pro actively took necessary actions to comply under their scope.
Find out where they failed to fullfill, better you do it in your scope. You can stop the payments untill the issue is solved.
But getting an undertaking or bond will not let you be above said responsibility.
In future make sure their bill process with the following checklist,
1, Attendance sheet
2, Wage sheet
3, ESIC challans
4, PF Challan
5, ESIC Half yearly return shall be filled late r on
6, Monthly return of PF
7, List of employees with ESI and PF Numbers.
8, An undertaking stating they have paid the full salry for the particular period , and the esic pf payments have been done.
Thank you
