Sir, Working with a DGR regd security agency. As per DGR wage structure there is a column on Uniform allowance @5% of basic, here my question is who will take this amount ? will it be with agency or to pay that amount to guard ? Agency is providing them uniform. Please let me know what to do ? If any Govt guideline on this uniform matter (contract labour, psara act or any other) please share.
Thnx,

Please ensure that you give full form of the abbreviations rather than assume everyone knows.
I have no idea what DGR is
I guess that the structure You’re talking about is the negotiation of the amount payable by the factory to the security agency. In that case, the allowance of 5% is given to the contractor to be able to pay the cost of the uniform for the staff.
PSARA act requires that the employer pays the cost of the uniform or provided free. it has nothing to do with the allowances in the salary structure, which is meant for a different purpose, mainly to reduce the amount of statutory dues Pe.
So, strictly speaking, this money goes to the agency and not to the security guards
