Abstract

This research examines the working circumstances suffered by contract workers in a few Rajkot District businesses, paying particular attention to the legal ramifications of their employment. The research uncovers the complex interactions between legal requirements and the actual experiences of contract employees via a thorough review of labour rights, relevant legal frameworks, and practical realities. The survey also cites major issues such as unstable working conditions, poor pay, a lack of social security, and workplace safety. The report suggests addressing these issues in light of its results, including bolstering enforcement mechanisms, launching awareness campaigns, spending money on capacity training, and guaranteeing fair social security inclusion. This research adds to the continuing conversation about labour rights by illuminating the legal ramifications of contract labour employment and offering doable solutions. It also aims to open the door to better working conditions for contract employees in Rajkot District.
