Compliance For A Company In Marketing/Service Industry

Dear All,

I have recently joined a company in Gurgaon as an HR Manager. It's a startup firm, and the nature of business is Marketing & Sales promotion. I wanted to know from the experienced fraternity what all things should be done from a compliance point of view. The current employee size is 70+. Looking forward to valuable inputs from you.

Regards,
Kiran

Legal compliance is a key function of HR, so please go through relevant employment acts like the Shops and Establishments Act, Minimum Wages Act, Sales Promotion Employees Act, PF, ESI, Contract Labour Act, Standing Orders Act, Bonus Act, Child Labour Act, Gratuity Act, Maternity Benefit Act, and Labour Welfare Fund Act, etc.

For your immediate reference, you need to maintain registers such as the Muster Roll, wages register, leave register, and ensure statutory deductions like PF, ESI, Professional Tax, and submit relevant returns to the statutory authorities.

You need to go through the acts first to have a basic understanding of them.

There are a number of compliance checklists available on Google and on this forum. You may take some of them and combine to make your own checklist. That will help to some extent. But in the end, you need to go through all the acts to do this.
