HR consulting & policy in Rajkot

A compliant employee handbook covering leave, conduct, POSH, IT usage, travel and exit policies typically costs ₹40,000 to ₹2 lakh depending on customisation, number of locations and whether Hindi or regional-language versions are needed. Template packs cost far less but need adaptation.

A POSH policy and Internal Committee are mandatory at 10 or more employees. Leave rules must meet the state Shops and Establishments Act. Standing orders apply at 100 workmen (50 in some states) in industrial establishments. Other policies are good practice rather than statutory.

For a company of 100 to 500 employees, job evaluation, market benchmarking and band design usually take six to ten weeks, followed by a communication and transition phase. Benchmarking data sources and the number of unique roles are the main drivers of time.

CNC operators and programmers, certified welders, tool and die makers and quality inspectors are in short supply relative to demand from the engineering clusters. Staffing partners source from ITIs across Saurashtra and from other states, and many units run apprenticeship programmes to build supply.

Payroll outsourcing for 20 to 200 employees typically costs ₹2,500 to ₹15,000 per month, and PF and ESIC consulting ₹1,500 to ₹8,000 monthly. First-time registrations, factory licence applications and record regularisation are usually quoted as one-off fees.

PF becomes mandatory at 20 employees including contract workers, and ESIC at 10 employees for staff earning up to ₹21,000 a month, as ESIC is implemented across Rajkot district. A factory using power with 10 or more workers also needs a licence under the Factories Act.
