Frequently Asked Questions
What is factory compliance under the Factories Act, 1948?
Factory compliance under the Factories Act, 1948 requires registered factories to obtain a valid licence, maintain statutory registers and records, comply with working hours limits, ensure worker health and safety standards, provide prescribed welfare facilities, and file annual returns on time. MSure manages all these requirements comprehensively.
What types of factories need to register under the Factories Act?
Any premises where 10 or more workers are employed with the use of power, or 20 or more workers without power, are required to register and obtain a licence under the Factories Act, 1948. The exact threshold may vary slightly by state. MSure assesses your specific situation and handles the registration process.
What statutory registers must a factory maintain?
Factories are required to maintain several statutory registers including the Register of Adult Workers, Register of Young Persons, Register of Leaves with Wages, Overtime Register, Accident Register, and Visitors Register, among others. MSure ensures all registers are accurately maintained and audit-ready at all times.
