Yes sir surely...without any hesitation.at any point of time..
All employees of regular type....temporarily based..apprentice type...on contract belong to a contractor...daily labour...workers like helpers engaged on daily wage through a mastry or a contractor...
All the above are undoubtedly eligible for W.c Act now called as Employees'compensation Act...
Go ahead and help the poor..Finally i conclude a daily worker joined an hour ago is also eligible when he injured or died unfortunately met an accident by fluke...

Dear Colleague,
As per Section 16 of The Apprenticeship Act 1961 it says: Employer's liability for compensation for injury. If personal injury is caused to an apprentice, by accident arising out of and in the course of his training as an apprentice, his employer shall be liable to pay compensation which shall be determined and paid, so far as may be, in accordance with the provisions of the Employees' Compensation Act, 1923, subject to the modifications specified in the Schedule.
Hence in case of Apprentices, the employer is liable to pay compensation in case of any injury by accident arising our of and in the course of his training as an apprentices. Hence you can very well cover the Apprentices under WC Policy as the risk is covered.
