The judgments quoted in this thread may be relevant and useful for you.
>>> The teachers (we are not making any comment about Astt. Teacher) have not been covered as ‘Workman’ as in ID Act.
Hence the service rules and regulations, service conditions, appointment letter should be referred to.
It shall be appropriate to show all such documents on record to competent and experienced labor consultant/service lawyer well versed with rules set by Directorate of Education, State education Act etc, in person and proceed under expert advise of your lawyer.
Your lawyer may ask you a set of structured questions and can opine that Astt. Teacher (you) would be covered as ‘Workman’ as in ID Act or not!
