Can We Hire a Quality Control Officer in Vadodara to Work Full-Time at a Contract Factory?

bhavyachawda
We have an API manufacturing plant in Vadodara, and we also contract manufacture other products in Ankleshwar at another owner's factory. Can we recruit a quality control officer on our payroll at the Vadodara location and have them work full-time at Ankleshwar, where our contract manufacturing is ongoing? The Ankleshwar factory is not owned by us. Could you guide me on how I can appoint this individual and if there are any additional documents I need to provide them with?

Yes, it's absolutely possible to recruit a Quality Control (QC) officer in your Vadodara plant and depute him for work at the Ankleshwar factory. However, you need to take care of a few important factors:

Labor Laws and Contractual Agreements
• You must ensure that this arrangement is in compliance with Indian labor laws. The Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, and the Factories Act, 1948, are particularly relevant in this case.
• The employment contract must clearly state the work location and that the employee may be deputed to work at different locations.

Letter of Deputation
• You need to provide a Letter of Deputation to the QC Officer that clearly states the nature of his work, location, and the arrangement between the two factories.

Salary and Benefits
• The salary and benefits should be paid as per the norms at your company (Vadodara plant) and should adhere to the minimum wages act of India.

Health and Safety
• Ensure the safety and health guidelines of the Ankleshwar factory meet the standards prescribed in The Factories Act, 1948.

Steps to Recruit and Depute
1. Recruit the QC Chemist for your Vadodara plant.
2. Include the deputation clause in the employment contract.
3. Issue a Letter of Deputation with all necessary details.
4. Conduct a thorough safety and guideline briefing.
5. Regularly check on the chemist's work conditions and satisfaction.

Remember that transparent communication with the employee about his work location and the nature of his job is crucial in this process.
