Dear Seniors,
We are working on the Power Projects. Our role is to erect Sub-Stations, Transmission lines, and handover to organizations such as States Electricity Boards, Power Grid, etc. on a PAN India basis. We work as contractors for them, and upon completion of the project, we move out. Currently, we are working in 15 states.
In the last month, a Labour Enforcement Officer visited one of our sites in Gujarat and carried out an inspection under the Minimum Wages Act. He has issued an Inspection note for non-compliance for not displaying a Notice containing the Rate of Wages, Name and address of the inspectors, Muster Roll-Cum-Wage registers.
I have the following questions:
1. Considering the circulars (ref. attachment), what are the appropriate minimum rates of wages (Central Govt or State Govt.) to declare?
2. Is it mandatory to maintain separate registers under other acts such as Contract Labour, Minimum wages, etc. when it is maintained under the BOCW Act?
3. Considering the business and working location of our company, what are the roles of Labour Officers (States) and Labour Enforcement Officers (Central)?
I would be grateful for your clarification.
Thanks and Regards,
