What is Factory Act Compliance?

Hiring contract labor through contractors and agencies is a common practice in many countries and industries, for jobs that require different levels of skill, including skilled, semi-skilled, and unskilled work. It's a trend that's now seen worldwide, and with the market-driven economy, organizations sometimes need to employ temporary skilled or unskilled workers to meet occasional surges in demand

However, employers need to be careful when hiring contract labor. They should ensure that the contractor is not cheating the contract worker and that they receive all the social security and other benefits to which they're entitled. Employers have a responsibility to make sure that the contract worker is not being taken advantage of.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about Factory Act compliance and factory licensing in India.

Any premises where 10 or more workers are employed with power, or 20 or more workers without power, and where a manufacturing process is carried out must register under the Factories Act. Such establishments must obtain a factory license before starting operations.
A Factory License is a legal approval issued by the state labour department that allows a manufacturing unit to operate. It ensures the factory follows safety standards, worker welfare provisions, and working hour regulations under the Factories Act.
Factories must maintain several statutory registers including attendance registers, overtime registers, accident registers, leave records, health and safety registers, and inspection records. These registers must be available during inspections by labour authorities.
Labour inspectors may conduct inspections periodically or based on complaints, accidents, or compliance checks. During inspections, they review safety measures, working conditions, factory registers, and compliance with labour laws.
Factories must ensure proper ventilation, lighting, machine guarding, fire safety equipment, emergency exits, first-aid facilities, and protective gear for workers. Safety training and accident prevention measures are also mandatory.
The maximum working hours for adult workers are typically 9 hours per day and 48 hours per week. Overtime work must be compensated at double the normal wage rate and must comply with legal limits.
Non-compliance may result in penalties, fines, legal prosecution, or even factory closure orders by the labour department. Serious safety violations may also lead to imprisonment of the responsible management personnel.
MD Consultancy assists factories with license registration, renewal, statutory register maintenance, safety compliance guidance, inspection preparation, and ongoing compliance management to ensure your factory operates legally and safely.
