Attendance Register for Shop & Establishment Act: How Do You Manage It in Mumbai?

Hello Everyone,

Can anybody please help me regarding the maintenance of the Attendance Register for the Shop & Establishment Act?

My office is in Mumbai, and the staff strength ranges from 10 to 16.

Hi,

You maintain the 'Muster cum Wage register' under the Minimum Wages Act that is available in the market. (I don't know the exact place in Mumbai). That is sufficient compliance.

I have that register, but we need to mention salary breakdowns and other details that may not be required for corporate. Is there any other provision for corporate use?

Hi Meera,

In the attendance register, you are not supposed to mention the salary breakups. You should mention the salary and salary breakup in the Salary Register or Salary Sheet.

Thanks,
Sushma

Hi,

There is no different law for the 'corporate sector'. You don't have to fill in each and every column of the register. Whatever is not applicable to you, don't mention anything. A basic breakdown such as 'Basic', D.A., and allowances can be mentioned. That way, if a P.F./E.S.I. or minimum wage inspector comes for inspection, you will be on the safer side.

Hi all,

Could anyone help me with the register number of the Salary & Attendance Register required as per the Bombay Shops and Establishment Act, 1948?
