Factories Act handled. Plant gate to payslip.
For Indian manufacturers running multi-shift plants, contract-worker engagements, and statutory registers across multiple state jurisdictions: Factories Act 1948 overtime, S&E Act variants, ESI compliance, and biometric attendance — all on one employee record.
01 · Factories Act overtime
2x wages, weekly-rest tracking, quarterly OT caps.
Factories Act §51 caps weekly hours at 48 plus §59 doubles wages for any hour beyond 9/day or 48/week, with maximum 50 hours of OT per quarter. EmployeeSight auto-flags violations before they reach the wage roll, with the audit trail factory inspectors actually want to see.

02 · Multi-plant biometric
Three plants. One employee record.
A mid-size manufacturer with plants in Pune, Bhiwadi, and Coimbatore. Each plant runs its own biometric devices (eSSL, ZKTeco, Matrix, Mantra integrations rolling out through 2026). EmployeeSight pulls attendance into one consolidated record, applies the correct state-specific Professional Tax slab automatically, and feeds payroll on the 30th.
- Per-plant biometric → central record
- State-wise PT auto-applied (28 states)
- Inter-plant transfers preserve service
- Contract vs permanent employee tagging

Principal-employer obligations without the spreadsheets.

EmployeeSight tracks contractor PF/ESI compliance status alongside permanent employees, with alerts when contractor deposits are pending past the 15th-of-month deadline.

- RC (Registration Certificate) document vault
- Pending-deposit alerts before liability cascade

Manufacturing
Questions plant heads ask first.
Is EmployeeSight good for manufacturing companies in India?
Yes — it’s built for multi-shift, multi-plant Indian manufacturing: factory-shift wages, contract-worker engagements under CLRA, state-wise Professional Tax across plant locations, and the statutory registers factory inspectors expect. Plant gate to payslip on one employee record.
Does it handle Factories Act overtime?
Yes. Factories Act §59 overtime at 2× ordinary wages beyond 9 hours/day or 48 hours/week, weekly-rest tracking under §51, quarterly 50-hour OT cap monitoring, and the Form IV register exportable for inspector visits. Violations flag before they reach the wage roll.
Does it integrate with biometric devices (eSSL, ZKTeco)?
Biometric integrations are rolling out through 2026 — first wave: eSSL, ZKTeco, Matrix, Mantra, via API or daily CSV push. Attendance from each plant consolidates into one central record either way.
What does it cost for a 250-worker plant?
₹299 per employee per month for EmployeeSight HR, ₹499 for the full platform. A 250-worker plant pays ₹74,750–₹1,24,750 a month, with no implementation fees and no per-statute add-ons.
