31 December 2007 Hi Sachin,

Further, please clarify whether the electician is within the payroll of the company.
ESI is not applicable on firms.
There is a concept of immediate liability of the principal incase of default by the contractor.
As per the example, the electrician shall be treated as a contractor. The obligaiton of meeting all the statutory requirements is of electrician (firm) towards its employees failing which itb shall fall on the company. To be on the safer side you may claim for ESIC challsn from the electrician if its a big contract. In case of small contract you my ignore.
