Ours is a large scale automobile dealership sales and service set up with a staff strength of 400 +. We have engaged various external agencies for inward/outward security for office and stockyard premises and housekeeping job works. The agencies render services through their own manpower forces for the purpose and not directly engaged by us. Now my queries are as follows:
Whether engaging such agencies come under the scope of Contract Labour Act ? Are we liable to fulfill the relevant statutory
compliance under the provisions of the CL Act. i.e.
> Registration as Principal Employer on our part and issuing them the relevant form for Labour Licence for engaging their services.
> Asking them to furnish all the mandatory details under the Act for our reference and record.
>Submission of Annual Return etc. to the Labour dept.
We understand that only government agencies are to get registered as Principal Employer with the Labour Dept. and issue Forms to the vendor contractor for engaging the laborers for execution of Contract jobs.
Please not that the security and housekeeping agencies have obtained labour licence on their own engaging thelabour services'
Regards.
