There are two types of apprentices. One under the Apprentices Act and other taken as such directly. In case of apprentices under the apprentices act, PF is not applicable but ESI Act is applicable. There is no master and servant relation as such and their services come to an end on completion of apprenticeship. The intake is through the office of apprentices advisor and there are some records to b e mentioned.
In case of apprentices/trainees, they are deemed to be your employees and you have to fulfill all requirements suchas PF, ESI etc. However if the appointment letter contains a stipulation that the it is a training for a fixed period and the employment shall come to an end after stipulated period, you can terminate the agreement without attracting provisions of Industrial Disputes Act as to retrenchment etc.
