Navigating the Punjab Shops and Commercial Establishment Act: What Registers Do We Need?

Dear All,

Our establishment is registered under the Punjab Shops and Commercial Establishment Act. Please forward me the list of registers required under the various laws that are applicable to us.

Thank you.

Hello, I wanted to check a small thing. If we have a manpower of just 7 as of now and we started our operations from June 09, do we have to pay the sum of INR 5000 to register under the Punjab Shop and Commercial Establishment Act? Please reply soon.

Thanks!

Dear Farid,

If your office is in Punjab, there is no fee. If it is in Haryana, you would be required to pay the fee.

We are putting in place a call center in Gurgaon, and the employees' shifts will be 4 days per week, 12 hours per day. For the Statutory Holidays, would the employees be entitled to paid holiday equivalent to a normal 8-hour working day, or would they be entitled to paid holiday for their average working day (12 hours)?

For the Paid leave, our current terms and conditions letter provides for 15 days or 120 hours of paid leave. Would we be expected to provide 15 days of leave for 12 hours per day (the employees' average workday), or would it be acceptable to continue to provide 120 hours of paid annual leave?
