Dear PTRC,
Number of employees for ESI coverage is 10 in the case of factories whereas it is 20 in the case of 'other establishments'.
Any labour involved voucher will attract ESI. Therefore, any payment made for housekeeping, gardeners, room cleaning arrangements etc will attract ESI.
If we include work of regular nature only under the purview of ESI/ EPF there will be no work coming under the regular nature. There will be a tendency to define all works as non perennial.
The matter of 240 days is a minimum fixed for the purpose of counting eligibility for various matters and as such that is a matter connected with service and not with contractors employees.
Regards,
Madhu.T.K
