The month of December usually keeps you busy meeting the deadlines for IT Declaration and submission of Proof of Investment and Form 24Q. Not to mention the yearly closing of accounts and the budgeting for the coming year. You are now raring to go for the long-planned family vacation. However, you are still a long way from taking a break! There are still registers to update, forms to fill, and other statutory compliances to meet before you can relax.
If your organization has a registered office in Karnataka, it is covered under the Karnataka Shops and Commercial Establishments Act 1961. This entails filing some mandatory forms and registers at periodic intervals and keeping them ready for the Department of Labour's Inspector. The most commonly required forms and registers are:
- Form F - Register of Leave with Wages
- Form H - Leave with Wages Book
- Form Q - Appointment Order
- FORM T - Combined Muster Roll cum Register of Wages
If you file Form U directly, be aware that filing it is now purely online because the Department of Labour, Karnataka, no longer allows manual submission of forms at their office. If you outsource this routine and tedious work to an authorized agent, then you may have bought some peace and breathing time. But can you be sure that you are 100% compliant with the regulations under the Act?
greytHR, the flagship product of Greytip, now covers all bases for you. The cloud-based software enables you to generate these most-used registers as a report from Reports Gallery. Just keep the generated form or register as a soft copy or printout for the Inspector to see. The Appointment Order can be generated instantly using the Template Gallery and shared online with the employee. You no longer have to sweat over minor details of frequently performed tasks!
