Service tax payment obligation

Reverse charge mechanism applies for levying ST for " the work of Supply of man power for any purpose". Can we conclude that the providing supply of pure labour for the work may be treated under reverse charge mechanism in the similar fashion.
It is said that there is 100% ST liability on service provider in case of pure labour supply contracts. The contractor quotes for the labour supply only contract with full loading of ST. Should the service receipient insist for production of proof of ST remittance by the contractor? Is there any binding on service receipient towards ascertaining that the ST is remitted by the contractor/
Pl advise.
