11 March 2010 Dear Sir,

The company i am currently auditing is in Construction/Infrastructure. They have workers at site who take daily wages and are not working through any contractors as such. They are working and taking wages on a weekly basis from the company. Also as per the management, it is not fixed that the same person will working in one week will work in another week. In such a case, is the liable liable to deduct PF and Esic and compliance with other labour laws. If so, as an auditor what should be my approach.

Thanks in advance.

11 March 2010 In case of PF, Provisions are applicable to the employees or workers whoes payment does not exceed Rs. 6500.
If the payment is not exceeding limit you should deduct PF and pay the same
