Generally, contract workmen are not entitled to raise an industrial dispute against the principal employer. However, in special circumstances, such as a demand for the eventual absorption of contract labour engaged in operations subsequently abolished under Section 10, a dispute can be raised but should be espoused by the regular workmen. Standing orders of an industrial establishment are not applicable to the contract labour engaged therein.

Regards.
