Dear Member,
If the State Labour Welfare Fund has provisions for the deduction of labour welfare contributions from employees, then it is compulsory to pay into the Fund. Various labour welfare schemes are being implemented by the State Labour Welfare Board using this fund for the benefit of workers and employees.

Dear Mr. Khola,
Greetings.
I have a few queries regarding the Delhi Welfare Fund. We are a company registered in Mumbai and have a branch in Delhi comprising 15 employees, of which 2 are at the managerial level and the rest are at the executive level.
My questions are:
a) What is the criteria for payment for employees? Do we need to pay for all employees, including managers and executives?
b) If yes, what is the amount per employee? It is a bit confusing as there are two amounts mentioned - 2.25 and 1.50 per employee.
I would highly appreciate your response on this matter.

Dear Prerana,
According to the material available to me, I would like to address this query as follows:
All employees, except those working in managerial or supervisory roles and drawing wages exceeding Rs. 2500/- per month, are to be considered for the deduction of LWF contributions.
As per Section 6BB of the Act, the components of the Labour Welfare Fund consist of the following contributions:
(a) Rs. 0.75 every six months per employee listed on the establishment register as of June 30th and December 31st each year, as the employee's share;
(b) Rs. 2.25 every six months per employee, as the employer's share, due before the 15th day of July and the 15th day of January each year; and
(c) Rs. 1.50 every six months per employee, as the Government of Delhi's matching contribution, an amount equal to twice the employee's contribution. This will only be paid upon receipt of the statement in the prescribed format from the Welfare Commissioner of the Delhi Labour Welfare Board, showing the total amount of employee and employer contributions for each establishment.
Submitted as requested.
