Dear Manjeet,
This indeed is a serious issue. Supreme Court has ruled that in the absence of registration certificate and license of the contractor, all the labours who have passed the 240 days test will be considered as regular employees. if any of the CL approach the labour authority for regularisation, then the company is at risk.

Hi Manjeet,
In case of Mines or underground construction as well seasonal labour the dates get reduced to 120 days, hence its preferable to either ask the contracter to get a MOU signed with a Major contractor whose license can be used in case the prequalification of the contractor is not possible or start to look out for legal options to secure your company.

"It has been well settled by the various judgements of Apex Court & High Courts that the contractor's employees will not become the employees of the principal employer,even if the principal employer does not get registration and the contractor does not hold licence,through employing contract lobour without obtaining registration or without obtaining license is an offence under the Act.Also if the principal employer terminates the contract of the contractor and thus the employees of the contractor becomes surplus,it is not obligatory on the principal employer to absorb the employees of the contractor.
The Supreme Court has held that neither the Contract Labour ( Regulatio & Abolition ) Act nor the rules made thereunder provide that upon the abolition of the contract labour in any establishment the said lobour should be directly absorbed by the employer of that establishment."

Hi,
i would like to highlight that all such jugdements to be read in totality.
while an organization not registered under the contract labour act and if it employs CL thru a contractor which futher dont have a valid license, it may creat lot of hassles in terms of proving that the said CL are employed thru contractor. The onus of proving the same is further difficult as it depends upon lot of issues and all courts will see the entire subject in totallity and award such judgement.

The well known judgement is with the case of "Hariyana Electricity Board" and wherein case is very similar of your kind. It has been setted that the such arrangement is bogus and camofulge and therefore CL are entitled for relief as prayed.
