Hi
Is it Mandatory to maintain a manual Wages Register, if we are disbursing salary through bank.
We also issue a wages slip to every employee. We do have bio metric attendance but still maintain a
manual muster roll. We are from Kerala
An expert opinion in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Soft forms of the registers can be kept but only with the approval of the competent authorities. For that you have to submit the printouts of the attendance register, wage register, pay slips etc and ensure that these soft forms have all the information required as per the forms in the relevant Acts. If the authorities find that the information are available, then they will allow you to discontinue the hard copies. The authority to approve it is Labour Commissioner, Trivandrum.
However, most of the establishments in Kerala do follow soft forms. The Inspectors are not that strict over these things now a days but so long as Attendance Register is available, they will not put any query. At the time of inspection you can show him the soft copies of payslips, payroll etc.
