The application of Contract Labour (R and A) Act, 1970 applies to every establishment in which twenty or more workmen are employed or were employed on any day of the preceding twelve months as contract labour.
The situation:
01. The Establishment has outsourced some of the work on job contract and the total number of workers engaged by its job contractors are more than 20. The organisation has therefore registered with the Regional Labour Commissioner as Principal Employer.
02 Each of the job contractors are however engaging less than 20 persons, therefore the Regional Provident Fund Commissioners Office is not Registering these Job Contractors for depositing the PF contribution of their workers?
03. As per the EPF & misc prov. Act 1952, the coverage is extended to every establishment employing twenty or more persons.
There is a dicotomy in the situation how do we go about it? What are the implication?

Hi All,
The EPFO has issued a notification to the principal employers to deduct PF on the Labour charges paid to the contractors. I hope this notifications is issued sometime in 2005.
If someone has the notification, pls pass this to the group. Will also try to get this notification.

Dear
Registration under the Contract Labour Regulation & Abolition Act is totally different than registeration under PF Act. For registration under the Contract Labour Act, the employer send the information about the name addressnature of job and the avg no, per day to be employed by each contractor; whereas if the contractor is employing more than20 workman on any day than he he has to get himself registered under the above Act.
RegardingPF, if you go through the registration form, there is one column Voluntary under this col, PF Authority is bound to register even if you are employing less than 20 person only formalities is that employer and the employee have to give an undertaking about voluntarily coverage.
