Hi,
It should be included.
Whatever the number of contract workmen working inside the premises, whether it is a supervisor or any other form, it should be included...

Supervisors are not covered if their wages is more than the limit prescribed in the Act. Read the relevant sec. of Contract labour regulation & abolition Act.

Dear Chander S.Sharma,

"workman" means any person (including an apprentice) employed in any industry to do any manual, unskilled, skilled, technical, operational, clerical or supervisory work for hire or reward, whether the terms of employment be express or implied, and for the purposes of any proceeding under this Act in relation to an industrial dispute, includes any such person who has been dismissed, discharged or retrenched in connection with, or as a consequence of, 9 that dispute, or whose dismissal, dischasrge or retrenchment has led to that dispute, but does not include any such person--

(i) who is subject to the Air Force Act, 1950 (45 of 1950), or the Army Act, 1950 (46 of 1950), or the Navy Act, 1957 (62 of 1957); or

(ii) who is employed in the police service or as an officer or other employee of a prison; or

(iii) who is employed mainly in a managerial or administrative capacity; or

(iv) who, being employed in a supervisory capacity, draws wages exceeding ten thousand rupees per mensem or exercises, either by the nature of the duties attached to the office or by reason of the powers vested in him, functions mainly of a managerial nature.

So, if the Gross Salary of those supervisor is below Ten Thousands rupees, then they will covered under Workman category and thus you have to include them under CLA Act.

Hope this will help you.

Dear Mr Sharma,
Your Query: Whether 3 Supervisors are to be included or excluded in the Total No of 100 C L License applied for and issued by the Authority?
Position: Are they( the 3 Supervisors in question) Permanently Employed on the Muster Roll of the Contractor
or they like other 97 C L shall stand terminated once the Work-on-Contract is over or the License is
not Renewed.Yo will have the answer when you examine the facts of the case

Query is straight. A Company has appointed a Contractor, who will supply 100 workmen to a factory. Whoever comes, inside factory gate, with a badge of Contractor, will be Contractor’s employee. He may be workman, or supervisor, total number should not exceed 100, since licence is taken for 100 persons.
They may be considered under different rules/act, or they may be on muster roll of contractor or not, their wages may be anything… total number of contractor’s persons entering factory gate should not exceed 100.
The Question, whether they are on muster roll of Contractor or not, does not arise.
