| Re: if worker not received pay slip what ? Dear kalijanni,
Your basic question remains unanswered : Whether it is compulsory to provide Wage-slip to workers - The answer is YES (In accordance with Standing orders).
The other question - to take a receipt from workers is concerned, it is not necessary especially when you are paying them through bank account, However, wage-slip is necessary to make it clear to the workers about the correctness of their wages. For a detailed insight, pl. read the following : WAGE SLIPS - Every workman working in the Industrial Establishment shall be given a Wage slip. Every workman shall be allowed to retain the wage slip issued to him. o In case where the wages are distributed in the morning, wage slips shall be distributed to workman not later than the middle of the night of the day previous to the day fixed for distribution of wages and where wages are distributed in the afternoon, not later than the forenoon of the day on which the wages are distributed. Provided that in case of other than permanent workman, the wage slip may be distributed to such workman before the time of payment. o Any objection as to the correctness of the amount payable to a workman shall be inquired into at once so that there may be no delay in payment. o If for any reason, it is not possible to conclude the inquiry before the time fixed for payment, the objection shall be registered and the amount shown on the wage slip paid to the workman at the fixed for payment and, if found correct, any difference in the amount payable to the workman shall be paid within six days of the date of his objection. Provided that where an objection has been registered and the custom exists of taking a receipt from the workman, such final receipt for payment shall not be taken until such time till the objection has been inquired into and disposed off.
