Abstract
Contract labour is generally refers to the ‘workers employed by or through an intermediary on work of any establishment’. However, the contract workers have no direct contact with the principle employer. This employment contract is the service between the employer and employee, where the employee agrees to serve to the employer, in all subjectivity and supervision. The labour in which is employed to perform some work through a contractor and hence no direct employment relationship exists between the ultimate employer for whom she does work and herself. The study concluded that under contract majority of the workers working for low wages because of the jobs related to unskilled. At the same time, they work for a long time. Under this system mostly they work due to poverty and their family problems. Though some respondents receive their pension and income from other sources, that income was not enough for survival and also pointed out that the current wage rate was not reasonable because of current price level.
