Why contractors and PEs switch

Contract labour is a three-way relationship generic HR ignores

Under the Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act, a contractor deploys workers to a principal employer, and both carry statutory duties: licences, muster and wage registers, returns and liability if the contractor defaults. Office HR software models one employer and its own staff. ZeniaHR is built for the contractor to principal-employer to worker chain, and shares one record with compliance and payroll.

🧾

Contractor & worker master

Hold every contractor, principal-employer site and worker on one record, with the deployment that links them.

🚪

Gate-pass & deployment

Deploy workers to a PE site with gate-pass and headcount, and move them between sites keeping the full history.

🕒

Muster & wages

Site muster flows into wages with the correct rate, feeding the statutory registers automatically. See attendance.

📑

CLRA statutory registers

Muster roll, wage register and the CLRA returns generated on demand, in the prescribed format.

⚖️

Principal-employer liability

See each contractor's compliance status so a principal employer is never exposed by a contractor's default. See compliance.

💸

Contractor billing

Turn deployed man-days into contractor invoices with service charge, GST and TDS, reconciled against wages paid.

How it works

From deployment to a compliant, billed man-day

  • Register contractors, principal-employer sites and workers on one system.
  • Deploy workers to a site with gate-pass and the right wage rate.
  • Capture muster at the site; wages and registers update automatically.
  • Generate CLRA registers and returns in the prescribed format.
  • Bill the principal employer and reconcile against wages paid.

FAQ

Contract labour management questions, answered

What is contract labour management software?

It runs the full contract-labour lifecycle under the CLRA: contractor and worker records, deployment to principal-employer sites, gate-pass, muster and wages, statutory registers and returns, principal-employer liability tracking and contractor billing. ZeniaHR does this on one record and is free for your first 100 workers.

How is it different from generic HR or manpower management software?

Generic HR models one employer and its own staff. Contract labour management models the contractor to principal-employer to worker chain the CLRA governs, with the licences, registers, returns and liability that come with it. ZeniaHR keeps this alongside deployment, payroll and billing on one record.

Does it generate CLRA statutory registers?

Yes. Muster roll, wage register and the CLRA returns are generated on demand in the prescribed format, from the same muster and wage data that drives payroll.

Can a principal employer see contractor compliance?

Yes. A principal employer can see each contractor's compliance status, so a contractor's lapse does not become the principal employer's liability unnoticed.

Does it handle contractor billing?

Yes. Deployed man-days become contractor invoices with service charge, GST and TDS, reconciled against the wages actually paid.

How much does it cost?

It is free for up to 100 workers. Paid plans start at Rs 25 per worker per month and fall to Rs 12 at scale on yearly billing. See the pricing page for the full rate card.
