'Badli' means a worker who is appointed in the post of a permanent worker or of a probationer who is temporarily absent. According to the Model Standing Orders given in the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, a badli worker is one who is appointed for the time being to do some work of regular nature when the person who has been doing that work goes on leave or is absent due to any reason. The job will cease to exist when the regular employee for whose absence he is appointed resumes duty.

Hi,
1. Sir, I feel that in the ESI Act, 1948 as well as in the EPF & MP Act, 1952, no separate provisions exist in respect of so-called badli workers. The above Acts do not discriminate between employees/workers based on their method of recruitment or the permanent nature of employment. Therefore, all such so-called badli workers are covered under the provisions of the above Acts.
2. The provisions of the above Acts are statutory in nature and allow no option to the employers.

Definition of Badli Worker
Learned members have defined the badli worker correctly as a worker who is appointed in the post of a permanent worker or a probationer who is temporarily absent. As defined, a badli worker is given a job when there is a temporary absence by any regular worker. In textiles, this badli worker system was in vogue.
Operation of the Badli Worker System
In this system, badli workers used to report to the gate of the mill every day, every shift. If any permanent or regular worker remained absent, then the supervisor had the choice to select a person present at the gate from the badli pool and put him in the place of the permanent or regular worker who was absent.
Current Status and Benefits for Badli Workers
I am not aware of this system being run today. However, if it is still in practice, the badli person should be included in the PF, ESI, and Labour Welfare Fund. Badli workers of Mumbai Textiles are exempted from Profession Tax. They have been badli workers for many years, some even for more than 15 years, without making any claims of any nature.
Such badli workers do not work for 240 days in any 12 months, so they cannot claim permanency. They get work as and when it is available due to the temporary absence of a regular worker. If any regular worker goes on leave, then there was a practice of filling the leave vacancy and not taking any person from the badli pool.
