Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the applicability of the Employee Compensation Act 1923, which mandates employer liability for injuries sustained by employees due to accidents during employment. It covers what constitutes a compensable injury and the scope of Workmen's Compensation insurance. The user further enquires about the minimum number of workers required for a policy in construction and whether contractors like housekeeping and security staff need WC cover.

Your query is vague. If a person is injured by an accident arising out of and in the course of his employment, his employer shall be liable to pay compensation as per the Employees Compensation Act, 1923.

The Worker's Compensation Act 1923 (now called the Employee Compensation Act) states that “if a personal injury is caused to an employee by accident arising out of and in the course of his employment, their employer will be liable to pay compensation”
A workmen compensation insurance covers the employees (including those employed through a contractor but excluding casual employees) who is engaged by any commercial business against any injury caused due to an accident that occurred during the course of employment, as well as certain occupational diseases.
