Held. Coverage of employee under Employee’s State Insurance Act, engaged for changing of the electrical wiring on the premises of the employer, will not be required as held by the Emloyees’ Insurance Court and the High Court has upheld the order of the Emloyees’ Insurance court relying upon the Supreme Court Judgement that casual contractors like plumbers, electricity repaires , air conditioner repairers , computer repairers and TV repairers , etc., who are engaged for temporay repair work, would not be convertible under the ESI Act.

Are they covered under Workmens' Compensation Act? As it is seen in many cases, SC has given judgement related to ESI coverage in the context of sickenss and other benefits of similar nature, but so far there is no such argument in any court for contract labour as covered under Workmens' Compensation Act
