I am from the HR Department. We have more than 14 sites in different states. We have two types of labor, i.e., 1) contractor labor and 2) departmental labor. If we want to transfer one site's labor to another site, please suggest to me what the legal process is for the transfer of labor.

Usually, the HR member should discuss with the staff member you would like to transfer verbally to understand his response. If he agrees to the transfer, we need to issue the transfer letter to the respective employee. The second copy of the transfer letter has to be signed by the employee as an acknowledgment of acceptance of his transfer. Along with the transfer letter, if there are any changes in the job description and reporting structure, the same has to be communicated through the letter and acknowledged.

Please see the thread at https://www.citehr.com/432872-transf...e-another.html, in which the same subject is being discussed.

The labor engaged through the contractor is known as contract labor. They are not on your rolls, so you can easily pass the instruction to the contractor to engage the workforce directly at another site. For reference purposes, you can give a referral letter to the contractor for the new site.

What is the Meaning of Departmental Labor?

Are you engaging them directly on your rolls or through some contractors? If they are directly engaged by you at the site level, then here also you must give them full and final settlement and instruct them verbally to report to the new site. Inform the new site to receive the departmental worker who is going to engage in a new job site.

These workers will be engaged newly every time they change the site. If you give a transfer order, then it will be considered that they are your permanent staff.

I presume departmental labor consists of your employees whose terms of employment are defined by the offer of appointment. If you have indicated in the offer of appointment that their job is transferable, then they can be transferred with a transfer order. As for contractor's labor, you will be dealing with the contractor, and their labor is none of your concern. You would be awarding the job to the job contractor, and it is up to him/her how he/she gets the job done at your new site.

However, if the contract labor belongs to your organization, then again you have to go by the contract of employment, if any. If there is none, then the contract labor needs to be convinced. In either case, the statute relating to migrant workers must be kept in mind while effecting the transfer of contract labor from one state to another.
