Guidelines on Contract Labor, Permanency, and Termination in Government Organizations - CiteHR

As we are a part of a government organization and have appointed clerks as office assistants (contractual) for our senior and chief managers, we have been utilizing their services as contract labor for the past two years. However, we now wish to discontinue the use of contract laborers. Could you please advise on the necessary steps we should take to terminate this process? We aim to ensure that none of the contract laborers pursue legal action to obtain permanent positions. Even if they do so, we hope to prevent them from succeeding in their claims.

Discontinuing Contract Labor: Steps to Follow

As we are part of a government organization, we have appointed clerks as office assistants (contractual) for our senior and chief managers in our office. We have been utilizing their services as contract labor for the past two years. Now, we are looking to discontinue the use of contract labor. Could you please advise on the steps we should take to close this process? We want to ensure that none of the contract laborers take legal action to demand permanent positions. Even if they do bring the matter to the labor court, we aim for them not to succeed in their claim. These workers are employed through a contractor and are considered contract laborers.

Seeking Permanency for Fixed-Term Contract Employees

We are approximately 1,000 employees working on fixed-term contracts since 1996, and we continue working on fixed contracts that are renewed every three years. We have all rendered our services without any breaks. Our company is a subsidiary of a reputed Public Sector undertaking of the Government of India.

Can we approach the labor court for permanency? What are the guidelines of the Supreme Court in this matter? Please suggest us.

Thank you,
