Dear friends,
I hope that you are aware of the latest notification regarding the Delhi Contract Labour Act, which mandates Principal Employers to ensure that all Contract laborers receive their payment through Cheque or Electronic Clearing Service (ECS).
At the same time, Notification no: J.L.C(42)/C.L.A/2014/01/5454 dated 4-Mar 2014 states that contractual employee details must be uploaded on the portal by the Contractor or Principal Employer.
Please refer to the advertisement in the newspaper, the checklist of required documents for information to be furnished on the PE portal/website, and the aforementioned notification on the topic.
Public advertisements have been issued by the department in various newspapers (Hindi, English, Urdu, Punjabi) to raise awareness among employers, including contractors, regarding the payment of notified minimum wages to their employees through ECS/cheque. The contractor/employer should assist their employees/workers in opening bank accounts. Every employer must upload the details of the category of workmen employed, wages being paid, and other statutory records maintained by them on their respective websites within 90 days from the date of this order. If a contractor does not have their own website, the Principal Employer should upload the information on their website until the contractor can do so. Hard copies of this information should also be submitted by the principal employer/contractor to the concerned registering/licensing officer.
All District JLC/DLCs who are notified registering/licensing officers under the CL(R&A) Act, 1970, are instructed to ensure that contractors pay the notified minimum wages to their employees by Cheque/ECS when issuing fresh licenses or renewing J licenses under the Contract Labour Act, 1970. Employers in Delhi have 90 days to ensure payment of wages by Cheque/ECS; failure to comply will result in license revocation and penal action under the provisions of the Contract Labour (R&A) Act, 1970, and its rules.
Regarding the issuance of registration certificates and licenses under the Contract Labour (R&A) Act, 1970, a checklist has been prepared and is attached herewith. All registering/licensing officers must ensure compliance with the checklist when amending registration certificates and renewing licenses.
Hope you find this document useful.
