Hello seniors,

I am new to this industry and I need your expert advice. I have started working with a bakery industry in Gujarat, and here they are employing contract labors. Please suggest what should be the minimum wage for contract labor for a bakery industry.

Thanks & Regards,

The Minimum Wages are a subject matter of the State Government. Every state has separate criteria, formats, and rates for different kinds of jobs. Even in some states, it is defined under different zones as well. Please check the Minimum Wages of Gujarat for the Bakery Industry and accordingly instruct the contractor to pay the minimum wages.

You have not clarified whether you have directly hired the labor on a contract basis or if you have given the contract to a specific contractor (being a third party) to engage the labor on their payroll. However, primarily, it should not be your concern, at least in the case of a contractor deployed for labor.

You can ask the contractor to come up with a quotation that must contain all statutory compliances (wages, PF, ESI, Bonus, Leaves, etc.). Generally, the contractors have some links with consultants who can provide this information. You should check whether he is complying properly.

Hope this is clear to you now.
