Confusion In Contract Labour Act - Pdf Download

I am having a confusion with Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act.
In the view of contractor It applies to every contractor who employs or who employed on any day of the preceding twelve months twenty or more workmen and Contractor means a person who undertakes to produce a given result for the establishment through contract labour or who supplies contract labour for any work of the establishment.
The query is whether the limit of 20 person is in an establishment or at a place.

What does this at place means???
If in a municipal limit there are three offices of a company than we have to take d total of all three or just a place??

if u r a contractor OK,
when u will take the license ? if ur contact labour strength more then 20 employees that time right.but authority need some doc for contact labour license. list of doc as below :-
1. Form - V ( tell me who will issue ??).
2. Form - IV ( fill up by contractor)
3. Trade license
4. TR - 7
5. Partnership deed. If partnership frame.
Tell me why form - V issue by employer ???????????
employer grand that their engaged more then 20 contact labour at their factory or establishment.
kuch samajh mein aya ????
ek site pe jetna CL hoga uske upar license requirement hota hai

Confusion Still Exists.
What is the definition of a place.
Whethher its a state municipal limit or just a place.
What if in a company there are more than 20 CLs . But there are seperate divisions in a company and under one division there are less than 20 CLs and controlling authority of every division is different??

It applies to establishment. If in a particular establishment, if the contractor is having more than 20 workmen in any day, he should get himself registered under contract labour (Regulation & abolitation) act.

One place one license means :- for example your one office address 420 xyz road and your second office address 130 abc lane,
Your first office engaged 08 Contact labour
And second office engaged 19 contact labour, but management some / different no issue.
authority issue license only for one place which is applicable, but above cause both factory/ establishment not applicable.
Example 2.
Your first office engaged 25 Contact labour
And second office engaged 20 contact labour, but management some / different no issue.
Authority issue 2 license for both address.
Understood ??????????????????

Each establishment engaging / engaged 20 or more workers shall have registration for establishment and contractor/s shall have license/s. If you have different factories / establishments at different locations/ addresses you shall have separate registration and licenses. If you are engaging 20 workers altogether, through different contractors, even then all shall be included in your registration certificate and they shall have licenses. It is the total number of contract workers that will be considered.

I am under impression that license is "contract specific". If I am a contractor and received one order for a job/ manpower supply in which I may have to depute more than 20 person on any day , then I obtain license from competent authority giving details of this contract. A precondition is that principal employer is having a valid license to use contrcat labour in its premises.
If I am a principal employer, then I take a licence from competent authority to use contract labour. If I am operating three contracts and under each contract, the person deployed is less than 20,[ together in three contrcats it may be more than 20 ] then none of contrcator need to have license but for me license is required.
Though I am not sure that my understanding of this is correct.

Dear Nitin ji,
Please see the attachment, your most of the doubts will be clarified from this.

Hello Anonymous
Please see section 13 of CLRA 1970. The license is specific to PLACE (place where the work has to be carried out) and specific to work/process to be carried out.
Hence the applicability of license is with respect to total number of CL the contractor would engage at the specific place for the specific job. Thus a contractor can't carry out work at two different places(geographical locations) with the one Labour License, he will have to obtain a separate license. Hence applicability of license will be when total 20 labours are to be engaged by the contractor at one place.
Hope this helps
