HRMS Payroll Software Kanpur — UP Labour Compliance for Leather and Textile Industry 2026

Kanpur's workforce is dominated by the leather and textile industries — tannery workers in Jajmau, textile mill workers in Juhi, and the growing IIT Kanpur-linked tech talent pool. UP's labour compliance (no PT, UP Shops Act, UP Minimum Wages) is straightforward, but the Factories Act requirements for Kanpur's manufacturing units add complexity. MICS HRMS handles both commercial establishment and factory compliance.

Labour Compliance for Kanpur

Factories Act (for Tanneries and Mills)

Kanpur's leather tanneries in Jajmau and textile mills are Factories Act establishments:

  • Factory licence: annual renewal
  • Working hours: 48 hours/week, 9 hours/day with 30-minute break
  • Overtime: double rate for factory workers — careful tracking needed
  • Weekly holiday: Sunday or alternate day
  • Annual leave with wages: 1 day per 20 days worked

UP Shops and Establishments Act

For Kanpur's commercial establishments, trading offices, and service companies:

  • Registration: online with UP labour department

UP Minimum Wages

  • Leather workers (unskilled/semi-skilled/skilled): different rates apply
  • Textile workers: separate minimum wage schedule
  • IIT Kanpur tech companies: above minimum wages, but statutory minimum is still the floor
