CLRA Compliance

The Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, is a significant piece of legislation under Indian labor law, aimed at regulating the employment of contract labor in certain establishments and providing for its abolition in specific circumstances. At GLC HR Compliance, we specialize in ensuring that your organization adheres to all aspects of this Act, fostering a fair and legally compliant working environment.

Scope and Applicability: The Contract Labour Act applies to every establishment and contractor employing 20 or more contract laborers. The Act mandates the registration of the principal employer and the licensing of contractors to ensure that labor is not exploited and that their rights are protected.

We handle the entire process, from application submission to obtaining approvals, ensuring that your business meets all statutory requirements. This includes maintaining records of the number of workers employed, their wages, and other employment conditions.

Regulation of Employment Conditions: The Act sets out specific guidelines for the employment conditions of contract labor, including working hours, wage payments, and welfare facilities. We help your organization implement these guidelines, ensuring that contract workers receive fair treatment. This includes the provision of essential amenities like canteens, restrooms, first aid, and drinking water, as mandated by the Act.

Compliance Audits and Training: Regular compliance audits are crucial to ensure ongoing adherence to the Contract Labour Act. We conduct comprehensive audits to identify any compliance gaps and provide corrective action plans. Additionally, we offer training programs for your management and HR teams to keep them updated on the latest legal requirements and best practices in managing contract labor.

Documentation and Record-Keeping: Maintaining accurate and up-to-date records is a key compliance requirement under the Contract Labour Act. We assist in the preparation and maintenance of all necessary documentation, including employment contracts, wage registers, and attendance records, ensuring that your organization is always audit-ready.
