So, the samething applies to Workman and workmen, does it not? You are right; Employee is a generic term. The term "Labor' has different meanings depending upon the context. Hence, kindly find out using the link that I sent.

Dear Mr. Prabakar,
Thank you for your input. Kindly clarify my doubts. If in a factory of 50 people in tamilnadu, there are 30 machine operators and 20 management staff like admin, hr, quality supervisors etc, will all of them be termed as employees or will they be differentiated as workmen and staff?
If they are not being differentiated , then, are all of them covered under factories act including staff? Please advise.
Thanks,
