Contractual employees do not have an inherent right to contract renewal; their rights depend on explicit terms. Outsourcing policies are typically non-reviewable by courts.
An association of contract workers cannot challenge a tender without individual worker representation, and adherence to reservation policies is mandatory in outsourcing contracts.
