Dgr wages calculation for 3 guards round the clock

KkRider Kolkata (Querist) 25 May 2025 This query is : Resolved
Sir,
At my office Limited tender was done for 3Nos DGR sponsored security personnels.
All terms and conditions were as per DGR guidelines.

At my office 3 nos DGR security guards are placed by security agency
Earlier all the 3 guards worked for entire month and were paid for 30/31 days. Total of 90/93 working days were paid to the agency(without reliving charges)

But now the agency has placed a reliever and is made to work equal amount of days as the initial 3 guards i.e. for eg. 23, 23, 22 and 22 days and same is being paid to guard by the agency.
Whereas they are being invoiced as (26/27 days * 3 guards* per day charges including reliving charges).

Pls clarify
1. Do the agency need to make the reliever work for equal amount of days or they need to work only for 12 days ( Problems raised by initial 3 guards as there working days reduced and also there salary)
2. Can initial 3 guards be made to work for more than 26/27 days if they are paid reliving charges. ( Also all the 3 guards are ready to work for 30/31 days if they are paid reliving charges)

You have not mentioned the contract conditions for the contract with the security agency in this regard.
If you find that the contract conditions are breached or if the current act of the agency is contradicting their own contract conditions then you may initiate appropriate legal action as per the contract conditions and also can terminate the contract if it is causing you fiscal loss.

If the conditions are breached you can very well initiate legal action as per law

The conditions as per DGR guidelines have been breached, and now you can take legal action as per the law in force. Consult a local advocate with the DGR guidelines for further guidance.

Whether DGR guidelines prescribe 12 hours x7 days duty for deployment of guard(s) ?
