The Indian labour law regime faces the problem of plenty. In India, a number of labor legislations have been enacted to promote the condition of labor keeping in view the development of industry and national economy. Especially after opening the economy in the early nineties and globalization, the industrial picture of India has changed completely. Adoption of high-tech methods for the production and the quality of the products has assumed an exceptional importance. Output and profitability have assumed greater importance, encouraging some employers to bypass the laws enacted for protection of the interests of the workers. One of such laws which was passed for the protection of the contract labour was the Act, Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) (CLRA) 1970. In the present study an attempt has been made to have an insight whether any improvement or changes have occurred in the working conditions of the contract labour after the implementation of the Act. The study also aims to find out whether the aforesaid act has been successful in meeting its purpose.
