We have a labour contractor under whom our Thika employees are registered. Now can I appoint a labour on behalf of the contractor. All formalities will be covered by the contractor?

Appointing a Worker and Deciding Wages
Appointing a worker and deciding the wages payable to a worker on behalf of the contractor may make the contract a sham. Therefore, you should avoid such acts of directly involving yourself in the matters of the contractor.

As rightly stated by Mr Madhu T K, please refrain from appointing any labour on behalf of the contractor as you will be put into problems. Hence, let the contractor do its job. R R Kapoor Vadodara

I disagree with the proposed suggestion. There are cases when supervisors or even managers are contractual. In those cases, it would be better to have input from HR as the concerned employee will add value to the organization.
Obviously, there should not be any official record. HR's representatives will conduct the interview, help fix the remuneration, etc., but the entire process should be documented under the contractor's domain. For workers, the contractor will likely be capable of handling the job, but if necessary, HR's representative may intervene.
