Dear Ganesh,
My personal view is that employment matters relating to any housing society or owners' association of exclusive residential apartments would not be subject to Labour Laws. However, if you are hiring the security guards thru any private security agency, pl ensure that they are paid the minimum rates of wages, if any fixed by your State Govt.

Dear sir,
I fully endorse to views expressed by Shri Umakanthan Sir. Min. wages Act is applicable to any body corporate or otherwise including shops, Farms etc. The Act is easy to maintain by RWA or colony residents. Its good to ensure wages payment strictly as per State notified rates so that office bearers do not face any problem. Second important thing is to employ guards from any Security Agency so that necessary documents / copliance which they do for others , same can get done with respect to these guards also. Its perfect opinion given by Mr Umakanthan.
