The cluster
The world’s largest refinery and India’s brass city.
Jamnagar is best known for Reliance’s refinery and petrochemical complex, the largest single-site refinery in the world, with Nayara Energy’s Vadinar refinery nearby. The city is also India’s brass-parts capital, with thousands of units making fittings and components.
Refinery and petrochemical sites rely on contract workforces for maintenance, shutdowns and projects, while brass units need skilled machine operators. TNSL serves both with strict safety and statutory discipline.

Questions employers ask about staffing in Jamnagar
How quickly can TNSL deploy contract workers in Jamnagar?
It depends on the numbers, skills and shifts. As a guide from our own work: for a greenfield cable plant near Ahmedabad we mobilised about 200 workmen in three months, and for an FMCG plant in Aligarh we deployed 125+ workers in 45 days. We agree a ramp-up plan with you before the first deployment.
What is the minimum wage for contract workers in Jamnagar?
In Gujarat, the minimum wage for an unskilled worker (Zone I) is ₹13,637 a month (₹524.50 a day), with higher rates for semi-skilled and skilled workers. The full table, with the effective date and source, is on this page.
Do Professional Tax and Labour Welfare Fund apply in Gujarat?
In Gujarat, Professional Tax applies and Labour Welfare Fund contributions apply. PF and ESI apply everywhere. TNSL deducts and deposits every applicable due and shares the supporting records and challans with you as agreed.
Can you support refinery shutdowns and projects?
Yes. We mobilise screened fitters, welders, riggers and helpers for shutdowns and projects, with safety induction, gate passes, attendance and settlements handled.
As the principal employer, what is my liability for contract workers?
Under contract labour law, the principal employer must ensure contract workers are paid on time and that PF, ESI and other dues are deposited; if the contractor fails, the liability can fall on you. TNSL removes that risk by paying on time, depositing every due, and keeping licences, registers and challans audit-ready for your inspection.
