Registration Requirements for Contract Employees
Please advise if registration is still required when the number of contract employees is fewer than 20. Additionally, is the registration process required to be completed separately by each office or branch premises, or can a regional office handle it on behalf of each branch or office?

If I have understood correctly, the arrangements in the present case are as follows: your bank has engaged the agency to provide services at your clients' locations through a contract. In this case, the bank is the Principal Employer (P.E) and the agency is the Contractor. The deployment on-premises or off-premises is not material in this case. All liabilities and responsibilities will be handled by the agency as the Contractor and by the bank as the Principal Employer. Social security compliance (EPF & ESI) will be ensured by the Principal Employer, possibly through the agency/Contractor. Yes, bank registration is a requirement if the number of contract laborers in this specific contract, either on its own or combined with other contracts for labor supply with the bank, exceeds 20 individuals.
