Slaughterhouse / Abattoir: setup and training guide
On this page
This page is the part of the onboarding kit that is specific to a Slaughterhouse / Abattoir. It lists what the app will set up for you, who in your team normally does each piece, and what you need to have ready. How to use the app is in the shared guides, which are the same for every organisation:
- Start here: what happens in your first 14 days
- How EarthReheal works: rules, jobs, evidence, approvals and reports in one page
- Role guides: Manager · Supervisor · Worker
The lists below come from the same rule set the app uses, so they match what you will see. What actually applies to your site depends on your answers during setup: a rule marked "depends on your site" is only switched on if you have, for example, a borewell or a kitchen.
1. At a glance
| What | How many (maximum) |
|---|---|
| Rules that apply to every Slaughterhouse | 7 |
| Rules that depend on what is on your site | 14 |
| Good-practice rules (recommended) | 7 |
| One-time setup items (photos, documents, certificates) | 54 |
| Recurring jobs (daily to yearly) | 52 |
| Things you log when they happen | 15 |
| Licence renewals tracked | 19 |
| Statutory filings | 4 |
Most sites end up with fewer than the maximum, because the setup questions switch off what does not apply.
2. Who you need on the app
Each row is a job in your organisation, not necessarily a separate person. In a small site one person often holds several rows: the manager is usually also the compliance officer. Every person signs in with their own account, so the record shows who did what.
| Role | App access | What they look after | Needed? | Items they own |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Manager | Manager | Slaughterhouse Owner/Manager | Yes | 11 |
| Compliance officer | Manager | ETP/environmental | Yes | 66 |
| Operations supervisor | Manager | Runs the daily team, checks and approves their jobs. | Yes | 31 |
| Housekeeping / floor staff | Worker | Slaughterhouse Worker / Maintenance | Yes | 12 |
| Lab / technical staff | Worker | Effluent / HWM lab testing | Yes | 1 |
| Kitchen supervisor | Supervisor | FSSAI hygiene / cold chain | Yes | 20 |
| Environment officer | Supervisor | CGWA groundwater monitoring | Only if your site needs it | 3 |
App access decides what a person sees. Manager: the web portal and the phone app, with setup, approvals, reports and filings. Supervisor: the phone app, with their team's jobs and approvals. Worker: the phone app, with their own jobs only.
3. Before setup: have these ready
Questions the setup will ask about your site
Setup takes about 30 to 45 minutes if you have these answers to hand. "Not sure" is fine for anything you can find out later; you can change answers afterwards.

7. Licence renewals
Enter the expiry date of each licence when you upload it. The app then creates the renewal job ahead of the expiry, so nobody has to remember the date.

| Contractor labour licences (50 or more contract workers) — renewal | Compliance officer | Always |
| Security agency licence (PSARA) — renewal | Compliance officer | Always |
8. Your filing calendar
Filings are statutory returns you submit to a regulator. The app reminds the owner ahead of each due date and collects the figures from the jobs your team has done through the year, so the return is built from real records.
| Filing | Due | Where | Rule | Needed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SWM ANNUAL RETURN | 30 June every year | – | SWM 2026 | Always |
| HWM ANNUAL RETURN | 30 June every year | – | HWM 2016 | If the rule applies |
| FSSAI Annual Fee + FSCR Filing | 31 March every year | FoSCoS | FSSAI | Always |
| Environmental Statement (Form V) | 30 September every year | State SPCB portal | Environmental Statement (Form V) | Always |
9. The rules behind all this
Applies to every site of this type
| Rule | What it asks of you |
|---|---|
| WATER ACT ETP | |
| Slaughterhouse Effluent Standards | Slaughterhouse effluent must meet size-differentiated BOD/COD discharge standards, requiring an on-site ETP or a third-party waste-management arrangement. |
| FSSAI | |
| SWM 2026 | |
| State Slaughterhouse Licensing | Since slaughter licensing is a state subject, this facility needs a state/municipal establishment licence on top of the central PCA Slaughter House Rules baseline — the specific requirements depend on the state. |
| Pre-Slaughter Animal Welfare Standards | Animals must get 24-hour rest with veterinary inspection before slaughter, adequate lairage space, and a separate stunning area — welfare standards are inspected alongside the slaughter licence. |
| Plastic Waste Management | Covers segregating plastic waste, the single-use-plastic ban, and handing dry plastic over to authorised recyclers — applies regardless of org size. |
Depends on what is on your site
| Rule | What it asks of you |
|---|---|
| HWM 2016 | |
| AIR ACT DG | |
| NOISE 2000 | |
| CGWA | |
| Diesel Storage Licence (PESO) | Storing more than 2,500L of diesel for DG backup requires a PESO storage licence and periodic tank safety certification. |
| Battery Waste Management | UPS/inverter batteries and other battery waste must be segregated and handed to an authorised collector, not thrown out with general waste. |
| E-Waste Management | E-waste (UPS batteries, old electronics, lighting) must go only to a registered recycler — no separate CPCB registration is needed as a bulk consumer. |
| Fire Safety (NOC & Systems) | Buildings above a certain height/occupancy (threshold varies by state) need a Fire Safety NOC, working fire-fighting systems (extinguishers, hydrants, sprinklers), and regular fire drills — facility management is directly responsible for this, not just the builder. |
| Construction & Demolition (C&D) Waste | Any renovation or demolition work must segregate C&D waste per the local authority's plan; projects over 20,000 sq.m also need EPR portal registration. |
| POSH Internal Complaints Committee | Any workplace with 10 or more employees must proactively constitute an Internal Complaints Committee, including an external member, at every branch or office location — waiting until a complaint arises is itself a violation. |
| Lifts & escalators | A lift runs on a licence and a maintenance contract that both expire. Where the state has a lift Act you get its statutory tests and filings; everywhere you get monthly maintenance, rescue-device checks and an accident log, because the owner answers for a defect that was known and not fixed. |
| Steam boilers | Steam boilers for laundry, kitchens or sterilisation are pressure vessels that must be inspected every year — an expired certificate means the boiler may not legally be fired. |
| Weights & measures | Any quantity you charge or pay for by weight — including waste weighed at a weighbridge — is only as good as a stamped, in-date instrument. |
| Rainwater harvesting | Where the state binds existing buildings, a missing or non-working structure is a standing violation and can raise the water bill; elsewhere it is the approval-time condition most often left unmaintained. |
Recommended good practice
| Rule | What it asks of you |
|---|---|
| Shops & Establishments Registration | Nearly every commercial or institutional premises operating in India needs Shops & Establishments registration from the state labour department or municipal corporation — this is separate from any sector-specific licence and applies regardless of business type. |
| Electrical safety | Every premises has an electrical installation that needs a current inspection or self-certification. Most fires in buildings start electrically, and a lapsed inspection is the first thing an insurer or investigator asks for. |
| Trade licence | Hotels, restaurants, hospitals, shops and most commercial premises need a trade licence from the local body, and it is often a prerequisite for other licences and utility connections. |
| Occupancy & structure | The occupancy certificate is the document other licences ask for; in Maharashtra and Gujarat an older building also needs a current structural stability certificate. |
| Site labour duties | These are the labour duties that show up on site — a stocked first-aid box, an accident notice, and proof that the agencies supplying your housekeeping and security staff are licensed. Wages, provident fund and ESI stay with payroll. |
| Personal data protection | Resident, visitor, guest, patient, student and staff records — and CCTV — are personal data. The core duties start on 13 May 2027; these tasks get the notice, breach plan and grievance contact in place before then. |
| Environmental Statement (Form V) | If your premises runs under an SPCB consent to operate (for an STP, ETP, DG set or boiler) or a hazardous-waste authorisation, you owe the Board a yearly environmental statement — water and raw-material use, pollutants discharged, hazardous and solid waste generated, and measures taken. It is easy to miss because no renewal prompts it. |
This guide explains how the app helps you keep records. It is not legal advice; your regulator's notification is the final word.
