Key Responsibilities:

• Manage attendance and shift rosters across all three shifts using biometric systems and HRMS; handle OT tracking, late marks, and leave administration

• Process end-to-end monthly payroll for 200 employees including CTC management, arrears, loans, and salary revisions

• Handle all statutory compliance independently — PF, ESIC, Professional Tax, LWF, Bonus, and Gratuity

• Liaise with labour department, handle inspections, and respond to notices

Candidate Requirements:

• Minimum 5 years of HR experience with at least 3 years in a manufacturing, chemical, sugar, distillery, or process plant environment

• Proficiency with HRMS platforms such as GreytHR, Keka, or similar

• Strong working knowledge of Certified Standing Orders and Chhattisgarh labour laws

• Experience handling labour department inspections and audits preferred
