Gate Pass Dilemma: How Do You Manage One-Day Contract Workers in Your Industry?

madhusmita.nayak
In my industry, we are continuously facing a problem in generating gate passes for the contract workers. Some of them join work for just one day and then leave. Since our gate pass system is linked to their ESIC and PF accounts, supervisors often request group passes. How can we address this issue?

Gate pass for daily labor

Right, nice query, sir. The issue of gate passes for daily labor is indeed a concern.

Problem with ESIC and PF linkup

How do you justify any single worker's safety if the setup has changed to a group single number account for ESIC and PF? The unfortunate situation is that all factory managements tend to heed the advice of their Chartered Accountants instead of HR or labor laws. Usually, CAs unnecessarily interfere with the law-bound payments of the working sector, perhaps out of convenience. Please don't disturb the present setup; go ahead. You are indirectly providing individual PF and ESI account numbers to innocent, illiterate Indian ground-level workers.
