Dear seniors,
One of my friends is working with a manpower supplier company. They received a work order for manpower in the oil and gas industry. The workforce is scattered on an Indian basis. The client is asking them to obtain a license under CLRA even though the number of employees working at a single location is less than 20.
Is the client's demand legally correct?
Thanks.

Contract Labour Act and the requirement of a license apply where the number of contract workers from a single contractor exceeds the number specified in the act (which is also modified by states).
Since the applicability of the act is specifically for each premises, the requirement will not apply in your case unless the places have been artificially separated to avoid licenses.
Note: The oil and gas industry is in the central sphere. You can approach the Labour Commissioner - Central in your state for advice.
