Dear Seniors,
I am working as Head HR in a manufacturing unit we have two contactors where contract workers absentism is very high of both contact workers, we daily contact contractor and brief him regarding absentism rate , he assure us, next day we faces same situation as yesterday, as an alternate he provide us replacement , but due to new worker every day output of work declines and we spent time & money on his training but these workers many times did not turn up next day, then again we seek new workers, daily manpower shotages and low output report is being faced every day, we have also one option to debit the amount of loss to contactor, but this is not a better solution , beacuse ultimately due to manpower shoratges we losses out production/output
Please advise how to handle this problem , because in every manufacturing unit production is very important and prominence over HR

Hi
It is very important to assess the quality and performance history of any contractors before finalizing them for your organization. Any how, As a contractor, he has to abide by the rules and regulations of contract agreement.
Please get in writing that he (contractor) has to supply manpower on regular basis. He has to ensure that he would not change the people till completion of the alloted work . In case of violation of contract , you may caution him that his contract will be terminated. This approach was successful in my previous mfg.company.

Hi Mr Mishra,
Can we do the below:
1. Proper documentation about of manpower engagement
2. Huge Penalty to contractor linked with the absence of labour or the loss of production.
3. Search of the new contractors/ New leaders from the existing labour to manage the big assignment in the responsible manner and they can explore more labour as per best fit to work. This will be threaten to the contractor; that if he will not supply the right manpower, his work force will be scattered and his role will came to an end.
4. If the requirement of labour is consistant; than on payroll labour may be planned.
Pls comment over the viability.

Hello,
Thanks for your valuable advise, infact we have already did the same , but contractor is very influensive and in good books of company & management and he also supports us , therfore we can't take this last step quickly beacuse it will not be suppoted by top management also.Rather we gave him warnings and pressure in writing everytime.But it is not working.

Dear Mr.Anurag,
Thanks for your advise & suggestions . I have already taken all 3 steps suggested by you. But Step No 4 we can't take beacuse this our management has not allowed , they are not willing to do so to lessen their liablities.
