Use WorkedIN responsibly
Understand the legal framework, compliance duties, and platform rules that apply to every employer and worker.
Acceptance of Terms
By accessing the WorkedIN website or applications, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions, the Privacy Policy, and any additional policies communicated to you. You must discontinue use if you do not agree.
Platform Role & Intermediary Status
- WorkedIN operates as a technology-enabled marketplace and intermediary under the Information Technology Act, 2000.
- We connect service seekers (employers) with independent service professionals (workers) but do not employ or contract workers on behalf of employers unless explicitly agreed in writing.
- WorkedIN does not control the quality, timing, or execution of services and is not a wage-paying authority.
Eligibility & Account Obligations
- You must be at least 18 years old and legally competent to enter into binding contracts.
- All information shared during registration must be accurate, complete, and updated when changes occur.
- You are responsible for safeguarding login credentials and restricting unauthorised access to your account.
Payments, Billing & Taxes
Payment responsibilities vary by engagement model (WorkedIN payroll, client payroll, or project-based deployments). Employers remain solely responsible for paying wages, reimbursements, statutory dues, and applicable taxes. WorkedIN may facilitate payment workflows but does not guarantee wage amounts, timing, or deductions unless specifically contracted to do so.
Prohibited Conduct
- Submitting false documents, impersonating others, or misrepresenting skills and requirements.
- Engaging workers below 18 years of age or violating child labour prohibitions.
- Demanding or accepting payments outside agreed terms, including unauthorised placement fees.
- Using WorkedIN channels to send spam, malicious code, or unlawful content.
- Circumventing platform processes to avoid agreed service fees or compliance obligations.
Responsibilities of Employers
Employers (service seekers) engaging talent through WorkedIN acknowledge the following statutory and contractual duties:
- Verify worker credentials, provide accurate job descriptions, and ensure safe working environments in line with the Occupational Safety, Health & Working Conditions Code, 2020.
- Pay wages that meet or exceed applicable minimum wage requirements under the Code on Wages, 2019, without unlawful deductions or delays.
- Determine applicability of Provident Fund (PF), Employees' State Insurance (ESI), and other social security schemes and remit statutory contributions on time.
- Comply with registration, licensing, and documentation requirements when engaging inter-state migrant workers or contract labour.
- Obtain necessary insurance coverages and safeguard workers from harassment, discrimination, or unsafe assignments.
Commitments of Workers
Workers (service professionals) must uphold the standards below while registered on the platform:
- Provide accurate identity information, work history, and skill details, and update WorkedIN about any changes.
- Follow workplace safety rules, site instructions, and lawful directions issued by the engaging employer.
- Respect client confidentiality, protect company assets, and refrain from actions that could harm WorkedIN's reputation.
- Report incidents, wage disputes, or policy violations promptly to WorkedIN support so we can initiate grievance assistance.
- Never solicit or accept unlawful payments for job placements; report any such requests immediately.
Compliance with Indian Labour Laws
The annexures below summarise key Indian labour statutes referenced in the WorkedIN Terms & Conditions. Users remain solely responsible for determining detailed applicability and ensuring compliance.
Employers are responsible for paying at least minimum wages, ensuring timely payments, and providing equal remuneration for equal work. WorkedIN neither fixes wage rates nor acts as a wage-paying authority.
Employers must provide safe workplaces, necessary protective equipment, and comply with working hour limits. WorkedIN does not supervise sites or control work execution.
When workers are recruited from one state for work in another, employers must handle registrations, allowances, travel support, and welfare compliance. WorkedIN's role remains that of a digital intermediary.
Employers determine PF, ESI, and other benefits applicability and remit statutory dues. Workers must furnish correct details to enable contributions.
Any contract labour relationship exists directly between the engaging employer and the worker. Licensing, registration, and compliance duties rest with the employer.
WorkedIN enforces zero tolerance for the engagement of persons below 18. Accounts that violate this policy are terminated and may be reported to authorities.
Using the WorkedIN platform does not create an employer-employee relationship with WorkedIN unless explicitly stated in a separate agreement.
By using WorkedIN, employers and workers represent that they understand applicable labour laws, will obtain independent legal advice where required, and will not hold the platform liable for their non-compliance.
