Dear All,
I work with OEM and we have outsourced few activities from our Production Dept. like assembly. We provide all the raw material, equipments, machines and get the work done on piece work system. The Vendor charge us Labour Charges in his Invoice. He is not covered under PF Act. He has deployed around 100 employees (direct + indirect). He is our dedicated vendor hence he works only for us.
Our local PF Authorities claims that since the vendor is not covered under PF, we as a company is responsbile for his coverage under our PF No. PF Authorities holding company responsible as Principle Employer.
Let me know your views.
Regards,
P Garge
