For foreign companies, NRIs, global startups and overseas investors, <strong>OSH Code payroll compliance<\/strong> is now a core operating requirement. It sits at the intersection of wages, working hours, safety and employment documentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">India\u2019s Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 (OSH Code) merged thirteen older central laws, including the Factories Act, the Contract Labour Act and the Inter-State Migrant Workmen Act. It works alongside the Code on Wages, 2019 and the Code on Social Security, 2020, and the four labour codes were brought into force in November 2025. This guide explains what changes for payroll, who is covered and how a foreign-owned entity can stay compliant.

The Code on Wages does that. But the OSH Code controls the <strong>inputs that drive payroll<\/strong>: working hours, overtime, shifts, leave, night work, appointment records and welfare entitlements. Any error in these inputs becomes an error in wages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Key concepts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Establishment:<\/strong> a factory, mine, dock, plantation or commercial or service workplace. The Code generally applies once an establishment employs 10 or more workers. Factories and contract-labour arrangements have separate thresholds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Employee vs. worker vs. contract labour:<\/strong> each category carries different obligations, and misclassification is a common audit finding.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Principal employer:<\/strong> the foreign-owned Indian entity remains accountable for contractors\u2019 compliance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A US or European parent used to flexible, salaried-exempt models will find India more prescriptive. Hours, overtime multipliers and leave accrual are statutory, not contractual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Legal_Framework_Regulations_in_India\"><\/span>Legal Framework &amp; Regulations in India<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Law<\/th><th>What it governs<\/th><th>Payroll relevance<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>OSH Code, 2020<\/td><td>Hours, overtime, leave, safety, welfare, appointment letters<\/td><td>Attendance, overtime pay, leave encashment<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Code on Wages, 2019<\/td><td>Wage definition, timely payment, minimum wages, bonus, equal remuneration<\/td><td>Salary structure, deductions, payment dates<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Code on Social Security, 2020<\/td><td>PF, ESI, gratuity, maternity benefit<\/td><td>Statutory contributions<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Companies Act, 2013<\/td><td>Entity governance and records<\/td><td>Director and officer compliance<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enforcement sits with the Ministry of Labour and Employment, state labour departments and inspector-cum-facilitators. Rules are notified by both central and state governments, so <strong>state-level rules can differ<\/strong>. Always confirm the current notification for the state where your entity operates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For foreign entities, the legal wrapper matters too. Whether you use a private limited company, an LLP or a branch office, the employer obligations are identical, though the registrations differ. Foreign firms choosing their structure should review <a href=\"https:\/\/startupsolicitors.com\/private-limited-company-registration.html\">private limited company registration<\/a> options, and the government\u2019s corporate registry at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mca.gov.in\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MCA<\/a> is the starting point for entity records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Payroll_Provisions_Under_the_OSH_Code\"><\/span>Key Payroll Provisions Under the OSH Code<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Working hours:<\/strong> generally capped at 8 hours a day and 48 hours a week, with prescribed rest intervals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Overtime:<\/strong> work beyond limits must be paid at twice the normal rate of wages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Annual leave:<\/strong> one day for every 20 days worked, subject to eligibility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Women employees:<\/strong> night work is permitted with consent and prescribed safeguards.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Appointment letters:<\/strong> written appointment documents are mandatory for employees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Health check-ups:<\/strong> employers must arrange annual check-ups for specified categories of workers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Migrant workers:<\/strong> inter-state migrant workers are entitled to a yearly journey allowance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the Code on Wages, exclusions from \u201cwages\u201d such as certain allowances are generally capped at 50% of total remuneration. This can raise the base for PF, gratuity and overtime. Foreign firms with heavy allowance-based pay structures should model the impact before 2026 payroll cycles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-by-Step_Process_to_Achieve_Compliance\"><\/span>Step-by-Step Process to Achieve Compliance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Determine applicability.<\/strong> Count workers by establishment and state, and identify any contract labour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Register the establishment.<\/strong> Complete registration through the designated labour portal and obtain the required licences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Map the pay structure.<\/strong> Re-test the salary breakup against the wage definition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Issue compliant appointment letters<\/strong> stating designation, wage components, hours and leave terms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Configure attendance and overtime rules<\/strong> in payroll software.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Maintain registers and returns<\/strong> for hours, wages, leave and overtime, in the formats the state requires.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reconcile statutory deductions<\/strong> (PF, ESI, professional tax, TDS) every month.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Audit annually<\/strong> against the latest rules and notifications.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Considerations by entity type:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Indian residents\/promoters:<\/strong> ensure promoter-directors who also draw salary are correctly classified.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>NRIs:<\/strong> an NRI-owned Indian company follows identical rules.

What is OSH Code payroll compliance?<\/strong><br>It means aligning wage-related inputs, such as working hours, overtime, leave, appointment letters and records, with the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code. Payroll must reflect statutory limits and entitlements, supported by registers that labour authorities can inspect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Does the OSH Code apply to foreign-owned companies in India?<\/strong><br>Yes. Any Indian entity, including subsidiaries and branch offices of foreign companies, must comply once it meets the applicability thresholds, generally 10 or more workers. Ownership does not change the employer\u2019s statutory obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. How is overtime paid under the OSH Code?<\/strong><br>Work beyond prescribed daily or weekly limits must be paid at twice the normal rate of wages. Employers should record overtime accurately, since flat-rate payment is a common compliance gap during inspections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Can NRIs running Indian companies follow the same payroll rules?<\/strong><br>Yes. An NRI-promoted Indian company follows the same labour, wage and tax rules as any domestic employer. Additional attention is needed for director remuneration, TDS and foreign exchange regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. What records should foreign firms maintain?<\/strong><br>Maintain appointment letters, attendance and overtime registers, wage and leave records, contractor details and statutory returns. Keep them updated per state rules, as inspectors may request them during routine checks or audits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OSH Code payroll compliance is no longer a back-office detail for foreign firms. It affects cost, culture and legal exposure. Getting hours, overtime, leave and documentation right from day one supports smoother <strong>company setup in India<\/strong> and credible investor diligence. Since rules continue to be notified at central and state levels, verify the latest requirements before each payroll year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want a structured review of your payroll and labour compliance, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/startupsolicitors.com\/contact.html\">contact Startup Solicitors LLP<\/a> for a practical, no-pressure discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Disclaimer: This article is for general information and is not legal advice.
