What is it?

Mandatory Approval to Employ Contract Workers

A Central Labour License is a mandatory registration under the Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act, 1970 for any establishment that engages contract workers. It must be obtained before hiring begins.

Applications are reviewed by a Central Board with up to 11 members, drawing representatives from the government, coal industry, mining sector, and contractors, depending on the establishment type.

The license is valid for 12 months and must be kept current even if you employ only a few contract workers. If you already hold a license, renewal is a simpler process requiring your existing license copy and Aadhar details.
