1.A contract labour, irrespective of the number of days of working, cannot become employee of principal employer.
2.Employement of Contract labour is prohibited in works of perennial nature. - However, violation attracts penalty & punishment. It does not give the contract labour regular employment in the principal employer's establishment.
3. Certain works are prohibited by the Central government by giving specific notifications. In such works contract employment is prohibited.
4. Providing better amenities, benefits never attracts any backlash, not providing them attracts.

The concept of automatic regularisation has been done away with in the SC judgement of SAIL. Now the workmen has to move the Industrial Tribunal and establish his status as workmen eligible for regularisation in the establishment.
