Employers now have the carefree advantage of handling their core activities all by themselves without getting distracted with non core activities which do indeed take a lot of their time and energy which can be passed on to secondary line of indirect employees deployed by the contractors on the premises of the principal employer. For this purpose, there is a legislation provided under the contract labour act , a statute which has been enacted to keep an eye on the employee related benefits of the indirect employees working as a part and parcel of the main stream channel in the precincts of the employer. This Act regulates the employment of contract labour in certain establishments and prohibits such employment in certain circumstances.
Under section 10 , the Government is empowered to prohibit employment of contract labour in any process, operation or other work in any establishment and it can be prohibited irrespective of the number of workmen , more or less than the specified number in any establishment or by a contractor. Since the Government has the powers to act under the provision of this Act, it cannot therefore refer the dispute to Industrial Tribunal.
The contract labour (regulation and abolition) Act is an important piece of social legislation and seeks to regulate the employment of contract labour or it can abolish the same.

It is important to note that sections 16, 17, 18, and 19 of the act and the rules made thereunder cast obligations on an employer to provide certain amenities for ensuring the health and welfare of the contract labour. However, it has also been provided that any such amenity provided, the principal employer has the right to recover all the expenses incurred by him in providing such amenity, can either make deductions from the amount payable. Section 29 of the Act enjoins upon every principal employer and every contractor to maintain the registers and records giving prescribed particulars of contract labour employed , the nature of work performed , the rates of wages paid, and other particulars in the prescribed formats.
