As per my knowledge, all factories come under the governance of the Factories Act. They have to comply with all the applicable requirements of the Occupational Health Centre (OHC), Medical Officer, and all other requirements as per Chapter III and subsequent state rules. I think it is mainly based on the workers engaged in the factory.
