1. Sir, in both above enactments, as referred by you, the term has been used as "persons" and not "employees" . Therefore, for example in respect of coverage under ESI Act, 1948 there must be employment of minimum number of persons and all of such persons may not be "employee" .as defined under said Act.
2. Only the persons engaged under the Apprenticeship Act, 1961 are not covered under ESI Act, 1948 provided their duration of employment do not exceed as laid down under Apprenticeship Act, 1961.

Please be careful when you give any information on the forum.
The PF act applies only when the employer has 20 employees or more. It is not 10 employees.
Further, ESIC regulations vary from state to state. In Maharashtra its 20 employees having salary of less than 15000 per month.
