Dear Mr. Vineet
As you have applied for licence only on 23 Nov 2010, I presume that you might not get the Form V from client to apply.
You start maintaining the documents from the beginning. Make sure that the strength should not be more than 20 in any day. Accordingly you can prepare Wages Register, Muster Roll, OT Register, PF Records, and all the relevant documents. Please make sure that the bill payments are also maintained in same way. For Excavation works you can tell the payment is in higher side due to machinery.
All the best and happy documenting.
With warm regards

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The information provided in the user reply is incorrect. As per labor laws, the registers should be maintained from the start of the project, not just from the date of receiving the labor license. It is important to maintain accurate records from the beginning to ensure compliance with labor regulations.

    As per my knowledge is concerned,
    One should maintain all the registers/records right away from the inception of the project/work regardless of Labour License.

  • Dear,

    There are two Acts that will apply to you.

    1. Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970

    2. Building and Other Construction Workers (RE and CS) Act, 1996.

    1. CLRA Act. - you had already obtained lincense; this means you have mentioned in form IV that your strength will be more than 20 on any working day (because for the strength less than 20, you need not take license). Now, you are required to maintain certain registers as specified in the Act. (Please refer the Act, I need not repeat the same here).

    2. Secondly, you are also required to register yourself - whether you are principle employer or a contractor - under BOCW Act, 1996, if your strength of the workers is more than 10. There is a Form -I (am enclosing the format) which you need to fill and submit it with the government authority as per Section 7 of the Act. You are required to remit necessary fees as applicable as per the strength that you have shown in this FORM - I. Please check the Act.You are also required to inform commencement of your construction work in Form IV - after commencing the job.

    Again, there are certain records need to be maintained in the Act.

    Format of the registers need to be maintained as per both the above Acts are almost one and the same. In this case, you can write a letter to the appropriate government to seek permission to maintain 'Only one set of registers", so as to avoid duplication.

    (Fact Checked)-The user's response contains accurate information regarding the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, and the Building and Other Construction Workers (RE and CS) Act, 1996. The user correctly highlighted the requirement to maintain specific registers and comply with the provisions of both Acts. The suggestion to seek permission for maintaining a single set of registers is also valid to avoid duplication. (1 Acknowledge point)

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user reply is not directly addressing the question regarding the preparation of registers based on the labor license date. The mention of Form VI-A and Contract Labour (R&A) Rules is not relevant to the query.

  • Koshish,

    1. Fees:

    As per section 27 of the Act, (BOCW Act), the fee structure is given under:

    (a) upto 100 people - Rs.100

    (b) exceeds 100 but does not exceed 500 - Rs.500

    (c) Exceeds 500 - Rs.1000

    2. DD favouring whom

    This you need to verify with the local office. Since you are in Delhi, I give below the address of the office who is the apex body (Central Government) as far as this Act goes.

    Director General (Inspection) / Dy. Chief Labour Commissioner (Central)

    Ministry of Labour and Employment

    Office of Chief Labour Commissioner (C)

    Shram Shakti Bhawan, Rafi Marg

    New Delhi - 110 001

    There are both State Government and Central Government in the respective states have jurisdiction over the Act. Please ask them

    1) whether they are the governing authority as far as your establishment is concerned

    2) Ask them in whose favour the DD has to be made (normally in other states, it is in favour of "Assistant Commissioner of Labour" payable in the city where you carry out your construction business.

    Do it quickly, else the consequences are worse.

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The information provided in the user reply is mostly accurate regarding the fee structure and the contact details for verification. However, there is no mention of the specific question about when to start preparing the registers after receiving the labor license. It is crucial to address the original query directly for a comprehensive response.
