Dear Sir,

We are registering under the Contract Act, 1970 with an agency that is providing the manpower. Now, my question is, we would like to add one more agency, so what is the procedure for registration?

Please advise.

Dear Parimal,

It's the same as registering a new contractor. You just need to meet the ALC (Assistant Labour Commissioner) and inform them that you are already registered for this, and you wish to add it to your existing registration.

However, nowadays, many labor offices are using computerized RCs, so they issue a separate RC for each contract.

Dear Parimal,

You need to submit the Amendment/renewal of the Registration certificate under the Contract Labour (R&A) Act, 1970, in the prescribed Form No. 1 within 30 days of such change to the concerned Assistant Commissioner of Labour, enclosing the original Registration certificate.

Both the employer and the contractor have to submit registration papers to the Labor Department by following the procedure. In the employer registration (license) form, they will add the present contractor. The contractor will get a license from the Labor Department.

Dear Parimal,

In case you are already registered under the Contract Labour (R&A) Act, 1970 as a principal employer and want the addition of another agency, you may apply in Form 1 mentioning the details of both the agencies. Write a request letter for the proposed amendment and also submit your original permission to the concerned authority. They will charge a registration/amendment fee as prescribed in the rules of your State and will issue fresh registration. Accordingly, your contractor/agency will arrange its own registration by depositing the registration fee, security deposit, and providing Form V.

However, under Section 10, the State Governments are empowered to abolish the employment of contract manpower in certain core areas, which you may confirm with your local authorities.

Greetings!

I agree with the statements regarding including an additional contractor. However, I seek additional clarification on the same point. A Principal Employer is in the process of constructing petrol/HSD outlets, which are then given to a contractor. The Principal Employer obtains an amendment in their Labor License, and based on this, the Contractor also obtains a License. However, this license is obtained only for a specific period of 3 to 6 months, with a specific address of the work site mentioned. After the completion of this site, the Principal Employer will award another contract for constructing another outlet at a different location. I believe that the contractor or the Principal Employer can apply for an amendment only for the decrease or increase of manpower, but a change of location will not be allowed more than once in a year. Is this true?
