Factory Act Compliance Services

Stay Safe. Stay Compliant. Stay Focused on Growth.

Running a factory in India comes with a major responsibility — ensuring full compliance with the Factories Act, 1948 and its State-specific rules. For many manufacturers, understanding and implementing these complex legal requirements can be overwhelming.

That’s where OM Management Consultants, one of Pune’s leading Industrial Compliance firms, steps in.

With 20+ years of hands-on expertise in Factory Law and Statutory Compliance across India, we make sure your factory stays 100% compliant, audit-ready, and penalty-free — so you can stay focused on what matters most: growing your business.

What Is Factory Act Compliance?

The Factories Act, 1948 governs the working conditions, safety, and welfare of workers in manufacturing units. It applies to:

  • Any establishment with 10 or more workers using power, or
  • 20 or more workers without power

The Act ensures:

  • Adequate Health, Safety, and Welfare measures
  • Regulated Working hours, Intervals, Holidays, and Overtime
  • Proper Ventilation, Lighting, Sanitation, and Machine Safeguards
  • Mandatory Inspections, Licensing, and Periodic Reporting

Complying with this Act ensures the safety of your workforce, protects your reputation, and keeps your factory running without legal interruptions. Failure to comply may result in heavy fines, legal action, or orders for closure.

Why Factory Compliance Is Challenging

Most factories struggle due to:

  • State-wise variations in rules for multi-location units.
  • Complicated Plan Approval & Licensing procedures.
  • Missing Statutory Registers and Annual Returns.
  • Lack of awareness about amendments or new government circulars.
  • Fear of inspections due to incomplete documentation.

These issues consume valuable time and resources — and non-compliance can severely impact business continuity.

This is why companies trust OM Management Consultants to manage all Factory Act obligations end-to-end.
