The payment of Bonus Act, 1965 is applicable to those establishments wherein 20 or more employees were employed on any day of the preceeding accounting year. Does the Contrcators who are engaging less than 20 Contrcat Labour on any day of the preceeding 12 months have also to pay Bonus to their Contract labours as per the Provisions of the payment of Bonus Act?
Please suggest appropriately.Yogesh Kumar Singh
