Dear All,
I am working in a Domestic BPO with a manpower size of 3000 in PAN India. Can anybody guide me on Statutory Compliances? We are maintaining monthly, proper submission of ESI and PF Challans, and Attendance Registers at the entrance. Is there anything else that needs to be monitored on a monthly basis as per the Labour Laws? What are the important labor laws to be followed related to maintaining registers in all the locations?
Actually, yesterday a Labor Officer came to our Chennai office and asked for some registers that we have never maintained. He also requested some details to be displayed on the notice board as per the laws. He has also claimed Rs. 5000/- or will file a case in the labor court. Please help to resolve this issue as he will come again on Monday.

Sanjukta

Dear Sanjukta,
BPOs are required to follow all the laws applicable to other companies covered under the Shop and Establishment Act, but BPOs do not follow it. Regarding the payment of 5000, it is not a big issue. Whether you maintain registers or do not maintain registers that are required to be given to them to maintain relations. You have to maintain all registers required under ESI, PF, Shop and Establishment Act, Bonus Act, Equal Remuneration Act, etc. Besides this, you have to maintain a notice board where you are required to write working hours, name of the area inspector, rates of minimum wages, payment date, etc.
Thank you,

Hi Malik,
Thanks for your response. Well, my company does not want to pay money as they say they are ready to fight for it. In that case, how should I communicate with the labor officer on Monday? How can I convince him? Can you suggest something?

In that case, Sanjukta, you should try to convince the management to resolve it on-site by managing the Lab Officer, which is the best option. Otherwise, you will have to present all the registers he has requested, which you don't have. It is very clear that you must follow the law, manage it, or pay a fine. If you go to court, the court will also request the presentation of those records and registers, which again you don't have.
How will you and the management fight this? This is for reference, as posted by one of our HR colleagues on Cite HR: https://www.citehr.com/90119-must-kn...ant-dates.html. Just search, and there are many other posts that will help you with statutory compliance. From now on, please try to keep records and registers updated.

Dear Member,
In fact, the decision in the matter should be taken by you, as these types of matters are to be decided at the top level of management. As far as the site of statutory compliance is concerned, my comments are as follows:
Of course, the attempt made is good, but at the same time, I would like to suggest the members to first decide the appropriate Government and then go through the State or Central Rules formats and then finalize by which date the return is to be sent and to which Central or State authority. I have also gone through this information/chart. As far as the information on submitting the returns under various labor laws, I have found that the formats relate to the Central Government. This means that where the establishment is within the purview of the Central Government, these formats are to be used and compliance is to be made accordingly.
Submitted just for information for those who are to send returns under various Labor Laws.

Dear Sanjukta,
It is always better to have the consultant because they handle all the compliances right from obtaining registration certificates, maintenance of registers, and all the compliances that need to be followed. Cost is, of course, involved, but you do not have to cut a sorry figure in front of the labor authorities. I work for a company that has a presence all over India with an employee strength of 8000. I'm able to manage compliance without any hitch with the help of my consultants. My sincere advice is to appoint a consultant and leave the rest to them. I can share the details of them if you so require.

Dear [Recipient],
For an organization of your size, it will be critical if your management does not focus on this essential aspect of your business. There are two support groups required: day-to-day maintenance, which can be managed by a consultant, for which your management will have to pay, and legal support in case you encounter or wish to avoid legal complications. Today's business success lies in avoiding litigation, for which you must have experts advising you. Cost-cutting in compliances is akin to cutting the branch of a tree while sitting on it.

Dear Sanjukta,
Legal Compliance Management is really a cumbersome task for any organization of considerable size, like yours. As you mentioned, it consumes valuable quality time of departments and deviates from the core functions. Furthermore, having comprehensive knowledge in "Legal Compliance Management" poses a significant challenge for internal departments since it is not easy to manage compliance simultaneously with core functions.
Most companies of your size handle compliances either with the assistance of local consultants or through a more efficient alternative of outsourcing the Legal Compliance Management function to a Management services company like ours.
We provide Legal Compliance Management Services not only for HR and Admin but also cover all possible functions across any organization. As pioneers in LCM services, and with a clientele worldwide, including Fortune 500 companies, we leverage our vast experience to offer turnkey Legal Compliance Management solutions (including Compliance Management services) to our clients.

Hi Ms. Sanjukta,
Yes, I do understand your problem. First of all, we should never encourage paying any officer. If, at all, any fine is to be paid for not having maintained certain records, it should be done through proper payment to the government. I would suggest that you appoint a consultant who has expertise in this area to take it further.
If it is not out of place, my organization "Tandem Integrated Business Solutions Pvt. Ltd." is one among those consultants who can help with this. If you are interested, you can reach me with full details at "sampath@tibs.in."

Hi Sk,
Would you be able to share the consultant's info? My office was just set up in Mumbai. Also wanted to check, some of the registers that are required to be maintained like for attendance. I realized they asked for very specific information like time in and out and rest in between. Does this need to be manually recorded in the registers? If we have access cards to tap in and out of the office and reports can be run from the computer systems, can that work?
And for the leave registers, same thing, if we have tracked it in our HR systems and reports can be run, do we still have to manually enter it into the registers?
Thanks!
