Shall PF & ESIC Is Applicable For Who Is Working On Daily Wages Basis.

Dear all,
I would like to ask that Shall PF & ESIC is applicable for who is working on Daily wages basis. As there is a lot of turnover of employees. How can the employee get hi benefits as he changes the job daily or weekly.

If you rare engaging them on daily wages on continuing basis, you need to cover them.

Agreed with opinion of Mr. Saiseven. Once an establishment is covered under EPF or ESIC on reaching the minimum no. of workmen that attract provisions of the statutes, any single workmen deployed since then will have to be covered as per provisions.
For overcoming the problem of daily or weekly job change, they may be engaged through a labour supply co-operative or agency who will maintain pf & other statutory documents as a contractor. the principal employer will be monitor the compliance part for the period of engagement in his establishment only.

yes ofcourse, P.F shall be deducted from their daily wages.In our organization even if it is 1 day work,we make the contractors to deduct & deposit the P.F. for those workmen.
