(G.O. Ms. No. 129/AIL/Lab./G/2020, Puducherry, dated 3rd December 2020)

ORDER

The Government of Puducherry has proposed to formulate simplification of procedure for furnishing of

Consolidated Annual Return and Integrated Register by an Establishment under various Labour Laws in pursuance

of implementation of the “Business Reform Action Plan - Ease of Doing Business” as formulated by the Government

of India. Wherein, the intention to provide such return and Integrated Register under various Labour Laws is to

sub-serve the purposes more specifically electronically, of the said labour related laws and the rules made thereunder,

wherein, provisions have been made for maintenance of registers. The integrated registers provided under the

proposed Order will facilitate ease of compliance, maintenance and inspection, and will also make the information

provided thereunder easily accessible to the public through electronic means thereby increasing transparency. Further,

issuing a separate Order for furnishing of Consolidated Annual Return and Integrated Register will benefit making

references of registers provided under different labour related laws simple, which will serve public purpose in a

better way.
