Hi,
I am working as an HR Manager in a Manufacturing Company. I wanted to have a small clarification. If we are hiring employees, nearly 25, from a manpower contractor, we are paying PF and ESI to the contractor. I wanted to clarify, if the contractor doesn't pay the PF and ESI to the concerned department and falsifies our company, who is responsible for this? If any issues arise, who is responsible - whether we are responsible or the contractor? We are going to release the payment based on the bill. In that case, how will we be held responsible? This is my question because we have valid proof that we are providing the money to the contractor through the bill we possess.
Kindly clarify for me.
