For example in BSNL the cadre hierarchy is like this CGM ->GM->DGM->DE->SDE->JTO for executives. Now for execution of various jobs labours are emgaged under comtractors in various offices. Now can CGM or GM be the principal employer as over all incharge? The job awarding and execution done in DE/SDE/JTO level and different from one DE to other DE in nature as well as quantity. DGM/DE/SDE/JTO do not have any financial power. Financial power is with GM/CGM and all policy regarding contract labour is controlled by CGM centrally. In your opiniun who should be ideal principal employer in this case. Early reply will be higly appreciated

Dear sdebhl,
How can a GM or a CGM be a Principal employer?
Principal employer is a term given to the organization that provides third party contracts. In which case, if the contract labour is hired through a contractor then the hiring partaker is called a PE. Policies and contracts can be taken care by the GM/CGM, in your case "BSNL" is the PE.

Dear sdebhl,
According to Section 2(g) (i), Principal Employer in relation to any office or department of the Government or a local authority means the head of that office or department or such other officer as the Government or the local authority, as the case may be, may specify in this behalf.
BSNL is a PSU wherein the Principal Employer is the head of the establishment / location who has obtained RC in his name.
RC is issued to Govt. offices /departments including PSU in the name of person holding the position of CEO / Executive / Executive Engineer / HOD etc.
Thanks and regards.

Dear SDEBHL,
Good Question... Let me tell you, any employer who has engaged the workers for the work to be done, such employer is called the Principal employer.
As per the CLRA Act,"Principal Employer" can be (i) in relation to any office or department of the Government or a local authority, the head of that office or department or such other officer as the Government or the local authority, as the case may be, may specify in this behalf, (ii) in a factory, the owner or occupier of the factory and where a person has been named as the manager of the factory under the Factories Act, 1948 (63 of 1948 ) (iii) in a mine, the owner or agent of the mine and where a person has been named as the manager of the mine, the person so named, (iv) in any other establishment, any person responsible for the supervision and control of the establishment.
In state of affairs, the signing authority will be your CGM.
