How Many Workmen's Compensation Policies Are Needed for Contractual Workers on Shifts?

Dear Sirs, I have a confusion: Suppose we have employed 20 workmen on a contractual basis, and at a time, only seven people work shift-wise on our shop floor, totaling 18 present in a day. In that case, how many named workmen's compensation policies are required? Please advise and kindly provide any available circular.

It is advisable to obtain an insurance policy under the Employees' Compensation Act, 1923, for the maximum number of workers, i.e., 20.
