Dear, Monitoring without periodically gap is must. Payment of ESI and EPF directly is better than payment to Contractor. JP Singh

According to act no contractor to whom this Act applies, shall undertake or execute any work through contract labour except under and in accordance with a licence issued in that behalf by the licensing officer.
so you should ask for license from your contractor.

Hi Govind,
Of course contractor is going to be in trouble. While finalizing vendor you should have cross checked all necessary documents like licence et.. You can still ask for the same and challans month on month from the contractor for ensuring proper submission of ESI/PF.
supporting document is compulsory for accounts people release their PF, ESI bills. Hope you are collecting challans from the contractor every month.
Anyway you dont need to worry. Still i suggest you to cross check the necessary documents.

My dear In this case principal employeer is responsible i.e. it will be your responsibility to ensure contractor must deposit emploee P.F., ESI, Sunil Prabhakar Manager HR
Dear Mr Govind
It is the primary responsibility of the principal employer to comply under the provosions of the ESI Act, 1948 in respect of all the employees engaged either directly or through an immediate employer(contractor) in the first instance under section 40 of the Act. Then Section 41 emplowers you to deduct the contributions from the immediate employer (contractor) from his bills or any amount payable to him. Suppose if the contractor is already covered under the Act with separate code No. they as a principal employer you have to insist the contractor to submit the copy of the challan, copy of Register of employees , wage sheet of the labour deployed at your site as provided under section 41(1A) of the Act. It is the mandatory and the principle employer can not escape from the statutory responsibility of the payment of contributions under any circumstances. A clear cut case of Honble A.P.High Court case is there in the case of M/s Bajrang Jute Mills vs ESIC.
The same position stands good in the case of PF also. Hence it is advisable to ensure the statutory compliances like ESI/PF before settling his claims.
