Dear Dhananjay
Greetings. The basic and social purpose of Contract Labour R&A Act, with specific Rules & notification from the respective State Government, is to ensure that exploitation of the contract labour is avoided. That is why, although it is the primary responsibility of the Contractor to ensure compliance with the Acts like Payment of Wages, Payment of Minimum Wages Act, Payment of Bonus Act, EPF Act, ESI Act, Workmens Compensation Act. However, in the event of the failure of the contractor to complay with these, it is advisable that the Principal Employer pays off these statutory amounts to the concerned authorities and deducts these amounts from the Contractors dues. Similarly, for the persistent failure of the contractor to fulfill these basic minimum requirements, it is advisable to terminate the contract with him.. Hope this is sufficient. In case you need any other additional inputs, pl feel free to call me on 09822395659 or e mail me at [Login to view]
Regards & wish you all the best
