No ....your company is no way responsible for re-employing the contract employee. Hope your company has executed a contract agreement with the sub-contractor, entailing job responsibilities.

Hi,
There is a supreme court ruling which clearly says that Principal employer is not obliged to provide employment to any employee/labour working with the organization through contractor.
However, as a principal employer you need to see that all statutory dues are paid to him as long as he is working with your organization as a contract employee through contract.
