The Workmen's Compensation Act has been transformed into the Employee Compensation Act 1923 since 18.01.2010. Schedule II of the Act specifies the individuals encompassed within the definition of 'employee' as stated by the Act. Notably, there is no reference to employees of educational institutions in this schedule, indicating their exclusion.
