How Do You Keep Form D Updated for the Equal Remuneration Act, 1976? Seeking Guidance!

Guidance on Maintaining Data in Form D

Please guide on how to maintain the data in Form D as required under the Equal Remuneration Act, 1976, including its frequency for updating, etc.

An early response would be highly appreciated.

Regards

You have to fill Form D once a year or whenever there is a change in Basic or DA. Mention the category of worker and their common slab salary. When there is a change in the wage, you can update the same in the register. The importance of Form D is to show there is no discrimination between male and female workers in all cadres.

Dear Shenbagarayan Ji,

Please explain what is the 'rate of remuneration'? Besides, should we consider just the average salary or each individual separately?

Thank you.

Form D Filling Guidance

I am still confused about how to fill the Form D columns correctly:

• Should each employee (both male and female) fill out the form individually?

• If not, how should we indicate the category of work for female workers in various roles such as Security, Production Engineering, Production, Design, etc.?

• Whose allowances should be included in the rate of remuneration paid?

• What amount should be listed as basic wages? Should it be the average salary of all employees (both male and female separately)?

Please advise.

Thank you,
