Ravi runs a small bakery that is a 'factory' under the Factories Act, 1948, and employs 8 persons. Under the Labour Laws (Simplification of Procedure for Furnishing Returns and Maintaining Registers by certain Establishments) Act, 1988, which register must he maintain at the work spot in lieu of the registers required under the Scheduled Act?

He must maintain a register in Form III at the work spot. With 8 employees the bakery is a very small establishment (not more than nine persons), and such employers keep only Form III, whereas small establishments keep Forms II and III.

  1. ARegisters in Form II and Form III
  2. BA register in Form III onlyCorrect
  3. CAnnual return in Form I only
  4. DNo register at all, as he is wholly exempt

Explanation

An establishment with not more than nine persons is a very small establishment. Its employer maintains a register in Form III at the work spot in lieu of the registers under the Scheduled Act. Forms II and III are required only for small establishments (10 to 40 persons), so the first option is wrong.
