If contract labour not worked 240 day in a year so he is eligible for leave encashment?

Please suggest to me if contract labour not worked 240 day in a year so he is eligible for leave encashment. Under contract labour act 1970.

as per your statement the employee does not worked for 240 days, where the question of EL encashment arise?

Where the contract workers are working? Factory or establishment? Annual leave wages are described under the two acts & not under the CL Act.
If the separation of service is because of employer, the payment of pro-rate leave wages (not leave encashment as is incorrectly called) has to be made. The 240 days criteria is for crediting leave on 1st January every year. In F&F settlement leave wages for even one day are required to be paid paid.
