The Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Lakshadweep (Amendment) Regulation, 2025

Labour20253 sections

This Regulation amends the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, specifically for the Union territory of Lakshadweep. Its primary purpose is to raise the threshold for the Act's applicability from establishments employing twenty or more workmen to those employing fifty or more workmen. This change effectively exempts smaller establishments in Lakshadweep from the compliance requirements of the principal Act. Additionally, the Regulation clarifies that for the purposes of this Act in Lakshadweep, the Administrator appointed by the President is the State Government. This adjustment simplifies regulatory compliance for smaller businesses operating within the territory.
