Hi All, A contractor is not covered under EPF act but principal employer is covered, will employees provided by the contractor are entitled for EPF or not? Please help in explaining.

If the establishment where the contract labour are engaged is covered by EPF (as also ESI) the contract labour are covered by EPF/ ESI, even if the contractor is not covered. In such scenario the contractor's employees will have to be given coverage under the Principla employer's registration.
