Frequently asked questions
What does Form IV record?
Form IV is the combined Register of Wages, Overtime, Advances, Fines and Deductions for Damage and Loss. For each wage period it records the rate and amount of wages earned, overtime, every deduction and the net amount paid.
Is a separate wage register still needed under the new Labour Codes?
The Code on Wages (Central) Rules, 2026 consolidate the earlier wage and deduction registers into a single Form IV, so one combined register now suffices for central-sphere establishments.
