Dear Seniors, Can anybody suggest how can I segregate the contract employees to Unskilled, Semiskilled, Skilled & Highly Skilled. Is there any specific GO? Kindly suggest.

Dear friend,
Creating a structure of workmen by classifying them further into different categories such as Skilled, Semi-skilled, Unskilled, and Highly skilled has been a bit confusing so far. But it is no longer the case because of the definition clauses of such words in the draft Code on Wages (Central) Rules, 2020 with reference to the occupations in which such employees can be engaged:
The terms have been defined as follows under the above draft Rules:
(1) Rule 2(j): "Highly skilled occupation" means an occupation which calls for a specific level of perfection and required competence acquired through intensive technical or professional training or practical occupational experience for a considerable period and also requires an employee to assume full responsibility for their judgment or decisions involved in the execution of such occupation.
(2) Rule 2(t): "Semi-skilled occupation" means an occupation which, in its performance, requires the application of the skill gained through experience on the job which is capable of being applied under the supervision or guidance of a skilled employee and includes supervision over unskilled operations.
(3) Rule 2(u): "Skilled occupation" means an occupation which involves skill and competence in its performance through experience on the job or through training as an apprentice in a technical or vocational institute and the performance which calls for initiating and judgment.
(4) Rule 2(v): "Unskilled occupation" means an occupation which, in its performance, requires the application of simply the operating experience and involves no further skills.
Thus, in the light of the above definitions of the draft rules on the Code of Wages, we can easily arrive at the classification of employees as follows:
(1) Unskilled: Those employees/workmen involved in jobs of mere operation with some experience only.
(2) Semi-skilled: Those employees with some skill gained through on-the-job experience to be engaged in an occupation which is to be performed under the supervision or guidance of a skilled employee and includes supervision over unskilled occupations.
(3) Skilled: Those employees with on-the-job experience or who have undergone apprenticeship training in any technical or vocational training institute to be engaged in jobs which involve initiating and judgment.
(4) Highly Skilled: Those employees with intensive technical or professional training or considerable practical experience to be engaged in jobs which require specific levels of perfection and involve independent judgment to be accountable for their execution.

Over and above what Mr. Umakanthan M has explained, I would like to add that there is a list of jobs (exhaustive) attached to Wage Code Central Rule that may help to find out the job skill. There may be other methods as follows:
1. Determination of job skill instead of employee skill, and the person engaged in the same job will be accordingly categorized as USK, SSK, SK, or HSK. There are experts available in the market who will delve into the details of the jobs to identify their skill differentiation.
2. In the majority of organizations, contract laborers are engaged in similar nature of jobs as permanent employees. If there is already a skill differentiation among permanent employees, the contract laborers will be categorized in the same skill category accordingly.
