Contract worker handling done right
Most Indian manufacturers run a mix of permanent and contract labour. The contract side is where compliance disputes typically surface, and where clean paperwork pays off most.
- Issue contract appointment letters separately from permanent worker offers, using the Contract template. Notice period, project duration and scope of work clearly stated.
- Track principal employer and contractor details against each worker for Contract Labour Regulation Act compliance.
- Generate payslips for contract workers in the same format so audit trails stay clean.
- Issue end of contract letters when projects close. Three minute job that closes the loop on legal exposure.
The Code on Wages 2019 specifically requires written terms of employment for all workers, including contract and casual. The Contract template in Offrd already captures the required clauses, so you do not have to draft them every time.
