Contract Labor Coverage Under EPF and ESI
If the establishment where the contract labor is engaged is covered by EPF (as well as ESI), the contract labor is covered by EPF/ESI, even if the contractor is not covered. In such a scenario, the contractor's employees will have to be given coverage under the Principal Employer's registration.
