Your cleint not liable to Service Tax. Since Labour paid does not amount to payment for service. Be it casual labour or permanent labour

If workers are working directly under your client either permanent or casual then not liable to service tax at all.
If workers are working through a contractor i.e Manpower service provider ,providing manpower if he is not corporate , your client company is liable to pay service tax under reverse charge on 75% of value including statutory payment of ESI, PF etc. The threshold limit not applicable under reverse charge / Joint charge.
The remaining 25% contractor is liable to pay i.e he has to collect and pay if the value of taxable services exceeds Rs.10 Lakhs.
Threshold for service tax registration is 9 lakhs.
