About the role
A generalist post supporting the mine HR function, weighted towards the compliance and shop-floor end of the work. You will spend more time at the gate, the canteen and the contractor office than at a desk.
It suits someone who has done contract labour compliance properly at least once and wants broader exposure — welfare, recruitment support, statutory returns and the early stages of grievance handling — under a senior IR manager.
Key responsibilities
- Administer contract labour operations: gate passes, headcount verification, wage disbursement monitoring and compliance document collection
- Maintain statutory registers, muster rolls, wage registers and returns under the Mines Act, CLRA and allied legislation
- Assist in domestic enquiries, grievance redressal and shop-floor level dispute resolution
- Coordinate welfare amenities — canteen, rest shelters, drinking water, sanitation, transport and colony maintenance
- Support recruitment, onboarding, induction training and coordination of statutory medical examinations
- Maintain attendance, leave and time-office records, and provide inputs to payroll
- Organise employee engagement activity — safety week, sports and festival celebrations at site
- Prepare manpower, attendance and absenteeism reports for site management
- Support inspections by the labour authorities and DGMS on manpower and welfare matters
Qualifications and experience
- MBA / MSW / PGDM in Human Resources, Personnel Management or Labour Welfare
- Generalist HR experience in a plant, mine or other industrial establishment
- Practical knowledge of the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act and its record-keeping obligations
- Proficiency with biometric attendance, time-tracking and contractor management systems
- Strong interpersonal ability with a direct workforce, and willingness to be based at an on-site mine location
Preferred, not essential
- HR and IR experience in mining, cement, steel or a similar industrial sector
