CS Executive · Setting Up of Business, Industrial and Labour Laws · The Labour Laws (Simplification of Procedure for Furnishing Returns and Maintaining Registers by Certain Establishments) Act

Kaveri Traders, a workshop in a scheduled employment in Coimbatore, never had more than nine persons on any day of the preceding twelve months. What must its employer furnish and maintain under the 1988 Act in lieu of returns and registers under the Scheduled Acts?

A very small establishment, with not more than nine persons, furnishes an annual return in Form I and maintains a register in Form III at the work spot. Form II is required only for small establishments, and the annual return applies to both categories.

  1. AAnnual return in Form I and a register in Form IIICorrect
  2. BAnnual return in Form I and registers in Form II and Form III
  3. COnly registers in Form II and Form III, with no annual return
  4. DOnly a register in Form III, with no annual return

Explanation

Not more than nine persons makes it a very small establishment. The employer furnishes the annual return in Form I and maintains only a register in Form III. Option with Forms II and III applies to small establishments, and the proviso requires Form I in both cases, so dropping the annual return is wrong.
