Factory License Acquisition is the process of obtaining a legal license for operating a manufacturing facility under the Factories Act, 1948. The license is mandatory for any factory engaged in the manufacturing, processing, or storage of goods, and it ensures compliance with health, safety, and labor regulations.
The process involves submitting an application to the Factory Inspectorate or relevant local authorities, providing details about the factory’s location, operations, machinery, number of employees, and other required information. The application is reviewed to ensure that the factory adheres to safety standards, environmental laws, and working conditions.
Once the application is approved, the factory is granted a license, which must be renewed periodically. The factory must also maintain compliance with provisions related to worker welfare, workplace safety, machinery inspections, and other regulatory requirements. The Factory License is essential for legally operating a manufacturing unit and ensuring that it meets industrial standards for safety and health.
