Is It Mandatory To Maintain Muster Roll, Register Of Wages, Register Of Wages-cum-muster Roll Separately.

Dear All,
I am pursuing MSW. I hope this would be the best platform to clarify my Doubts.
Is it mandatory to maintain all Muster Roll, Register Of Wages, Register Of Overtime separately while maintaining Register of Wages – Cum – Muster Roll under Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970? And can we maintain them in soft-copies in the prescribed format?

Dear Mageshwar
You can maintain the softcopies after approval from labour department but they approved only based on manpower basis.

under CLRA records have to be maintained separately, However the employer can ask for electronic maintenance of these records by writing to labor commissioner, and if he found it in order, may grant permission with or without limitations, ( it vary case to case basis, and past performance of contractor in labor returns)

Better to maintain one manual also for checking purpose.
