I am working in a construction firm. Recently, I have received a demand notice in the name of one of the partners from the Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund regarding payment of outstanding dues. My query is whether my firm is actually liable to pay those dues. They have asked me to put my ESSTT code number of our establishment on the backside of the demand draft. What is ESSTT?

Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund Act Compliance
The Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund Act is applicable to your company if you have engaged 5 or more employees. If this Act applies to your company, you are required to obtain registration under the Act, i.e., an establishment code, by submitting an application to the relevant authority and paying the contributions mandated by this Act, which includes both the employees' share and the employer's share. These contributions need to be made twice a year.
Your company must deduct the MLW Fund, representing the employee's contribution, from the employees' salaries every June and December. Additionally, the employer needs to contribute to the fund three times the amount deducted from the employees' salaries.
Please ensure compliance with the regulations outlined in the Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund Act to avoid any penalties or legal issues.
Thank you.

If your firm has engaged more than 5 employees, your firm is liable to pay the contribution to the Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund (MLWF) on a six-monthly basis. The contribution amount is Rs. 48 per employee for six months. I suggest that you consider the notice seriously and approach the Labour Inspector at the Sahakarnagar, Pune office to clear out the dues.
