Dear All
Please help me in explaining that who is supposed to take license under BOCW ACT 1996 please read the definition of Employer in the Act it says "employer"- in relation to an establishment, means the owner thereof and includes,-
(i) in relation to a building or other construction work carried on by or under the authority of any department of the Government, directly without any contractor, the authority specified in this behalf, or where no authority is specified, the head of the department;
(ii) in relation to a building or other construction work carried on by or on behalf of a local authority or other establishment, directly without any contractor, the chief executive officer of that authority or establishment;
(iii) in relation to a building or other construction work carried on by or though a contractor, or by the employment of building workers supplied by a contractor, the contractor.
If some govt. authority awarded the work to my company and in my company further gives the contract to some other company who is doing the work at ground...then who should secure the license under BOCW Act??? my company or the contractor company who we have awarded the work??? in my opinion and according to point (iii) its the contractor who is doing the work at ground is supposed to secure the license.
Kindly guide....
Thanks
