Dear Rahul
Please refer Circular 4 of 96 of ESIC. All your points are answered in detail
2. Insurance policies are entirely different. By taking policies you are not absolved from statutory responsibilities.

Clause 3 of the Instruction 4/99 state that workers at site are to be considered as "employee" u/s 2(9) . If the no. of such workers increases to 20 ( and in most cases, it is likely to be), then all charging provisions of ESI will be applicable to PRINCIPAL EMPLOYER (CONTRACTING PARTY) as the words used are "directly in a covered factory by the principal employer or through an immediate employer". The Circular / Instruction thus exempts the Contractor from ESI liabilities but simultanelusly binds the Principal Employer. This needs to be clarified by ESI Deptt. as they have the practice of levying ESI on entire amount of COnstruction ( ignoring material component) with hefty interest, subsequently during assessment or inspection.

Hi
A Decade ago there was a clear notification from the ESIC stating that the employees who works on site need not be covered under ESI . ( As there working area will be fluctvating and they cannot take treatment anywhere) . The notification was 10 years before , but I am not sure whether the ESIC has revoked the notification or not , but as per the B&S act 1996. it is not dealing with the ESI part and also the benefit they are claiming from them will be very less
In my view, it is better to cover them Contract labour employees under (Group insurance policy ) to meet the unexpected accident cases and compensation
