LABOUR LICENCE UNDER CONTRACT LABOUR ACT

Dear Seniors,
Recently, I have made a contract with a MNC Bank to provide guarding service to all their ATM in South India. ( Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala and Andrapradesh ). I have to deploy three guards in each ATM ( ie. one guard per 8 hours shift- total 175 gurads including relievers).
Though the deployment is made in different states and different sites, a single Guarding bill has to be submitted to the Bank.
KIndly inform me whether I should take Labour Licence or not. If so let me know in details.
JOHN

For Security Gaurd contract labour is not applicable if they are registered under security gaurd board

Dear Sir,
Good,You are correct, in Maharstra, we have security guard Board. My question is for other states, ie Andra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala.
Can you please give with reference.
JOHN

Dear John,
Even if you are in the state of Maharashtra and governed by Security Guards board, you require a Contract labour license for the organisations governed by Government of India like Banks and Telecom Companies. So for a bank you require it even in Maharashtra.

If i am appointing only 3-5 persons through a contractor for house keeping purposes is it necessary for the contractor to have a licence in Maharashtra.

Dear Member,
You are not to have any contract labour licence under the Contract Labour (R&A) Act, 1970 for employing 3-5 persons.

Applies to every establishment in which 20 or more workmen are employed or were employed on any day of the preceding 12 months as contract labor. And applies to every contractor who employs or employed on any day of the preceding 12 months 20 or more workmen.

i want to clear you some thing in this matter.
matter is in 02 part . first part is employer and second part is contractor ( your firm). so when you ( your firm ) is engaging manpower more than 20 in only one employer ( MNC Bank) then you have to take the labour license. and before you take it is mandatory to employer ( Bank ) to get registered under the law, because without registration by an employer , no employer can engage any contractor labour. so its mandatory to principle employer to get the registration under the law.
second thing it's doesn't mean that you are employing your guard in different location. all the employee who will work in different location are retrieved the salary from you payroll and they will count for one employer ( Bank).
so its mandatory to both for getting the registration under law..
