Dear Seniors
If the fixed term contract is for 4 months, my understanding is that the contractee is eligible for EPF and ESI (if the establishment is registered under EPF and ESI). Is this correct?
Further, if the contractee is terminated before 4 months, should the employer pay any compensation?
Warm regards

Even if the contract is for one day, the contractee has to to be covered under Pf if hi/her wahes are less than Rs 6500 p m and under ESI if the wages are Rs 15000 or less T Sivasankaran

The contract of employment under a fixed term contract (FTC) will stand terminated automatically and in such cases the the termination will not be retrenchment as per section 2(oo)(bb) of the Industrial Disputes Act. In such scenario no compensation is payable to the employee. However, if the contract of employment is terminated before the prefixed date, then obviously, the employee should be given either one month notice or salary in lieu.
