It is not easy to answer your query because the term "labor" alone is not defined in any of the labor laws. Words similar to labor that are usually used include 'workman', 'worker', and 'employees'. Sometimes it is referred to as 'bonded laborer' or 'contract labor' in some of the labor laws.

Solution to Understanding Labor Definitions

I suggest that you go through the compendium of labor laws. Section 2 of all the Acts contains the definitions part, where you will find various definitions related to a particular Act.

"Labor" means any person who is employed to do any skilled, unskilled, or manual work and receives wages for the services rendered. If you could reveal the circumstances or context under which you want to understand, it would help us to provide a more detailed explanation.

Thank you.

Dear Sir Some books may give different interpretation but None of our Labour Laws denies the fact that persons who are doing skilled work are Labour / workman/ employee. thanks for your reponse.
