Respected seniors, I have created a roster for contractual staff who are deployed for security services at our hospital. Could you please review the wage distribution, which I have shared in sheet 3 of my attached Excel file? I request guidance on any discrepancies with respect to the current minimum wages applicable in Karnataka and the computations I have done in this regard. I am located in Delhi, India. I look forward to your guidance.

Based on your query, you are seeking an evaluation of your wage distribution for contractual security staff in relation to the current minimum wage laws in Karnataka.

Firstly, it's important to note that the Minimum Wages Act, 1948, mandates employers to pay not less than the Minimum Rates of Wages notified by the respective State Government.

In Karnataka, the minimum wages for security staff employed in hospitals for 2020 - 2021 are as follows:

1. Unskilled: INR 10,400 per month
2. Semi-skilled: INR 11,500 per month
3. Skilled: INR 12,800 per month

Please verify if these rates align with the wage distribution in your roster.

Also, ensure that the wages are not inclusive of any allowances, as per the Supreme Court ruling. Allowances should be over and above the minimum wages.

Additionally, cross-check if the wage distribution is proportional to the hours of work, overtime, and rest intervals as per the Shops and Commercial Establishments Act.

You may refer to the official Karnataka Government Gazette for the most accurate and updated information on minimum wages.

Remember, non-compliance with the minimum wage laws could lead to legal issues. Thus, it is crucial to regularly review and update your wage distribution based on the latest regulations.

Lastly, it's recommended to consult with a legal expert in labor laws or a professional HR consultant for a detailed review of your wage distribution and compliance with all relevant labor laws.
