As far as my knowledge goes, the matter of ESI for construction workers is pending before the Honorable Supreme Court of India in the year 2018. Any recent updates on this important subject that have occurred post that? If so, kindly share with everyone for the benefit of understanding. I have enclosed an attachment on the subject from ESIC in the year 2018. I hope the status is still maintained. You may check with ESIC for further updates.
Thank you, everyone, for the valued comments and sharing. I presume then that taking insurance through EC act will be the option for the construction workers.
Is there any exemption of BOCW Act for low-income group (only ground floor) houses under PMAY? Further, I understand that in Maharashtra state, a Labour Contract License is applicable if a contractor has more than 50 employees. Is it the same case in Tamil Nadu as well, or does TN need a contract license if the employee count is more than 20?
I have corrected the spelling and formatting of your message:
Sorry, I meant to say Workmen Compensation Act.
