Dear friends,

Labour Welfare Fund that we are talking about, defers from state to state. Even though the basic purpose etc remains the same.

Please note that Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund (MLWF) is operational in the state of Maharashtra. As per MLWF Act 1953, it is the employer's responsibility to file for the MLWF Returns (Office in South Mumbai - Mahapalika Marg) twice a year.

Thus, 6 monthly returns for June & December every year are filed within 14 days from the last day of the return applicable i.e. 14th July for 6 months ended June and 14th January for preceding December.

The rate of contribution is as follows:

For every workmen having wages / salary more than Rs. 3000/- per month: Workmen's contribution is Rs. 3/- p.m and employer's contribution is Rs. 18/- p.m.

For every workmen having wages / salary more than Rs. 3000/- per month: Workmen's contribution is Rs. 18/- p.m. and Employer's contribution is Rs. 36/- p.m.

Most importantly, the Form is known as A-1

Hope this will help you to some extent !

Hi Shaunak,
Thankyou for that valuable peice of information you shared.
I have a query on the the rate of contribution. You have repeated the same sentence twice.
'For every workmen having wages / salary more than Rs. 3000/- per month: Workmen's contribution is Rs. 3/- p.m and employer's contribution is Rs. 18/- p.m.
For every workmen having wages / salary more than Rs. 3000/- per month: Workmen's contribution is Rs. 18/- p.m. and Employer's contribution is Rs. 36/- p.m.'
Can you please clarify. Also would like to know where I could procure Form A-1.
Warm Regards,

Dear Eme,
Sorry for ther error.
The first sentence on contribution goes as follows:
"For every workmen having wages / salary less than Rs. 3000/- per month....... "
Thereafter, it is okay.
Just check from your end on the contributions plz. I had personally filled up these forms around 1 year back, but then my job profile got changed from Factory HR to Corporate HR.
Never-the-less, thank you for bringing to my notice the error.
