Labour Welfare Fund Registration
Employer registration and contributions under the state Labour Welfare Fund.
What the Labour Welfare Fund is
Many states require employers to contribute to a Labour Welfare Fund under the state's Labour Welfare Fund Act. The fund supports welfare measures for workers.
Where the state levies it, the employer and employee contribute small periodic amounts, and the employer registers with the state Labour Welfare Board and remits the contributions on the prescribed cycle.
