Dear Suchita
Please call the worker who was engaged with the contractor and the contractor and ask for the reason for denying the payment. If the payment was denied due to some theft or damage/loss caused by the worker then you can decide as per your company norms as you will deduct the amount from his bill, obviously the contractor will deduct from the payment of the worker who caused the damage/loss. Otherwise, misunderstanding, if any, please clear them and till he gives the payment to the worker, you can hold the cheque of the contractor and instruct the contractor to submit the paysheet of all the workers to your IR Department and then you can issue the cheque to the contractors.

Greetings Suchita,
In my view it may not be appropriate for you to investigate non payment of wages to a person not connected with your company. Hence, you can advise the spouse of the housekeeping lady to approach the labour officer of the respective remedy in case the contractor refuses to release payment without a proper justification as explained by Mr.Bhaskar.

As per section 21(4) of the CLRA Act if the contractor fails to give wages the principal employer is liable for the same.He can recover it from contactor's bill.So there is nothing wrong in employer investigating the reasons for non payment of wages.

Greetings Varghese Mathew,
As Suchitha has indicated that the lady's spouse worked with yet another contractor offering services in an organisation different from the one she is working. This was the reason I suggested to her that it may be inappropriate to launch an investigation.
