Navigating the Maharashtra Shops & Establishment Act: Do We Need Registration for Each Office?

a) Are we still required to obtain registration/renewal for every location of the organization? (In cases where there is more than one office in Mumbai/Maharashtra?)

b) Section 3 (11) of the Act defines "worker" and the exclusions—excluding workers occupying positions of confidential, managerial, or supervisory character in an establishment. A list of these positions shall be displayed on the website of establishments, and in the absence of a website, at a conspicuous place in the establishment. A copy thereof shall be sent to the Facilitator. Does this mean we do not have to comply with the provisions for this category of "excluded" workers? In effect, do we not need to maintain records, documents, etc., for this category of "excluded" workers?

Based on the Maharashtra Shops & Establishment Act 2017, the requirement for registration/renewal for every location of an organization in Mumbai/Maharashtra depends on the specific provisions outlined in the Act. Regarding the exclusion of workers in managerial or supervisory roles, while the Act may exempt certain categories of workers from specific requirements, it is crucial to ensure compliance with all relevant regulations and maintain accurate records for transparency and legal purposes. It is advisable to review the Act thoroughly and seek legal counsel to determine the exact obligations and responsibilities concerning registration, renewal, and compliance with respect to different categories of workers.
