A workman is deemed to be employed as Contract Labour when he is hired in connection with the work of an establishment by or through a contractor.
Contract workmen are indirect employees;
persons who are hired, supervised and
remunerated by a contractor who, in turn, is compensated by the establishment. Contract labour has to be employed for work which is specific and for definite duration. Inferior labour status, casual nature of employment, lack of job security and poor economic conditions are the major characteristics of contract labour. While economic factors like cost effectiveness may justify system of contract labour, considerations of social justice call for its abolition or regulation.

You should study the following acts/rules concerned with the present matter:

1. THE CONTRACT LABOUR (REGULATION AND
ABOLITION) ACT, 1970.

2. Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Central Rules, 1971 which came into force on 10.2.71.

3. Industrial Disputes Act, 1947.

4. Central and State Advisory Contract Labour Boards.

5. REGISTRATION OF ESTABLISHMENT AND LICENSING OF CONTRACTORS

6. Payment of Wages Act.

IMPORTANT JUDGEMENTS OF THE SUPREME COURT:

Gujarat State Electricity Board Vs Union of India, Air India Statutory Corporation Ltd. & Ors Vs United Labour Union & Others, and Steel Authority of India Ltd. & Others Vs National Union of Waterfront Workers and others on 09.05.1995, 06.12.1996 and 30.08.2001 respectively, are
landmark judgements.
