Dear All
I am working in a manufacturing company in Chennai in IR department looking after administration of Contract Labour Act. I request fellow professionals to clarify and guide me in the following relating to contract labour act:
We have obtained Registration Certificate from the Factory Inspectorate for engaging contract labour. The contractors have also obtained licence to work as a contractor in the following areas on a daily basis :
Packing
House keeping
Material movement
We also engage certain contractors who are not included in the Registration Certificate to carry out the following work :
Cleaning of fume extractor
Repairing the roof of the factory to arrest leakage of rain water
Painting of machineries periodically
White washing and painting
Chair repair
Various annual maintenance contractors who come to the factor to do periodical preventive maintenance
Most of the above work would take only a day or two to be completed.
Please advise whether these contractors also should be included in the Companys Registration Certificate issued by the Factory Inspectorate and the respective contracts should also get licence since the nature of work is of intermittent and casual nature.
In the event of serious accident, how should the occupier and the manager be protected from prosecution
