Understanding Central Minimum Wages for Security Guards: Monthly Rates and Paid Days Off?

Hello Seniors, please help.

Central Minimum Wages for Security Guards

In the case of security guards, the Central Minimum wages are 609 (area C). Please confirm the monthly rate. Is it:
609 * 31 = 18,879
609 * 30 = 18,270
609 * 26 = 15,834

Dealing with Paid Weekly Off (Rest Day)

In all the above cases, how should we deal with paid weekly off (rest day)?

Mandatory Compliances for Labor Laws

Mandatory compliances for labor laws and other laws (central sphere).

Rate Consideration: Per Day or Monthly?

Should we consider the per day rate or the monthly rates? Please advise.

Dear Mr. Gaurav,

609 * 26 = 15834 (This is the correct monthly rate, exclusive of W/off).

Paid Weekly Off Treatment

The paid weekly off should be treated as overtime (OT), which is supposed to be paid at twice the rate (Rs 609 * 2).

Mandatory Compliance

There are various mandatory compliances under the central sphere. You have to check which apply to your establishment or share more details so that seniors can suggest their views.

For OT, you should consider Rs. 609 as the daily rate; however, the monthly salary should be Rs. 15834 (calculated for 26 days exclusive of applicable W/offs). Don’t consider the monthly wages on a daily basis, as it causes trouble (25, 26, or 27 days in different months, based on Sunday/rotational weekly off).
