Principal definition in contract code#

Unlike the Contract Labour Act, the code does not contain any substantive provision allowing the principal employer to recover the expense of the above facilities from the contractor. These include provision of canteen and creche facilities amongst other requirements that may be applicable on notification by the appropriate Government. Section-53 of the Occupational Safety Code provides that a principal employer shall be liable for providing the welfare facilities under Section-23 and 24.

Let us now examine the liabilities of a principal employer under the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020. Thus, there is no risk of compliance changes due to a definitional change. (iii) With respect to any other establishment, it is any person responsible for the supervision and control of the establishmentР В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚РЋrom the above we can see that the definition is similar to that under the Contract Labour Act currently in force.

(ii) With respect to mines, it is the owner or agent of the mine (i) With respect to factories, it is the owner or the occupier or if a person has been named as the manager of the factory, the person so named The definition deems individualsР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС› principal employers under the code based on the type of establishment as follows:. Section-2(zz) defines a principal employer in terms of where contract labour is employed or engaged. It is under the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 that we find a definition of the term. It is not used at all under the Industrial Relations Code and is found in the other two codes, only under the definition of contract labour. We find that the term is not defined under the Code on Wages, the Industrial Relations Code and the Code on Social Security, respectively. Let us begin by analyzing the definition of the term under each of the codes. The above juxtaposed with the status quo will shed light on the differences between the regulations under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970 and those under the new labour codes. This shall allow us to obtain an understanding of the various compliance consequences of the same. In this post we shall examine the impact of each of the four codes on the liabilities of a principal employer. Their impact on various domains such as IT/ITes companies, payroll and salaries and more have been discussed in previous posts.
