Esi Coverage Now On 10 Employee In Delhi - PDF Download

Dear all,

I am enclosing the ESIC notification in which it is clearly mentioned that the coverage includes shops, hotels, restaurants, road motor transport establishments, cinemas, newspapers, educational institutions (private, public, aided, partially aided) run by individual trusts or societies, medical institutions, hospitals, nursing homes, diagnostic centers, and pathological labs. These establishments are now covered if they have 10 or more employees on any day of the preceding twelve months. This regulation is effective from 01.04.2011.

Dear All,

ESIC, in their notification dated 19th July 2010, instructed all state governments to issue a notification in this matter. I am enclosing that circular.

Dear All,

The same will be declared for PF as well. If anyone has any notification, kindly provide.

The notification is for shops, etc., but does not mention offices (commercial establishments). So, does this mean offices still don't need to do this until they have 20 employees?

Dear Saswata Banerjee,

Yes, of course, that word was missed. But in the earlier notification, you can spot the phrase "non-factory establishments." I am also waiting for our fellow members' comments on this.

Sincerely,

Dear All,

Our company has an employee strength of 150+ but we are not providing PF benefits to our employees. Can someone share basic knowledge regarding the same?

While consulting with the HR team in the company, they informed us that with a minimum package of 6600+, employees can skip these benefits. Is it really possible?

Regards,
Kirti Rawat

Dear Kirti,

As per PF Rules, all employees will be covered under PF if their BASIC+DA is less than 6500/-, and it's mandatory. So, if you explain your pay structure as a "minimum package of 6600+" then it will be easier to provide details.

Regards,

Dear Mr. Shish / Mr. S. Sethupathy,

Greetings of the day!

Thank you for the notification. Could you please explain to me the benefits of ESIC concerning employees/workers?

With regards,

Dear Sameer Ghosh,

I am enclosing a few files on ESI. Please go through them.

Dear Mr. Sethupathy,

The present notification issued by the State Government concerns Section 1(5) of the ESI Act, 1948. By virtue of the amended provisions, all non-power establishments, whether they are shops, commercial establishments, road transport establishments, educational and medical institutions, etc., where a service is provided for a price and employing 10 persons, irrespective of their salary limit, fall under the provisions of the Act.

In Andhra Pradesh, this has been effective since 15-04-2011, while in other states, it depends on the date on which the relevant notification under Section 1(5) is issued by the concerned State Governments. I hope this point is clear.
