ESI doubts
I have heard that we can avoid ESI under some special cases for people who are entitled for the same.
I am interested to know what are the actions to be taken, if we do not have a subcode in a particular territory.

Pls let me know.

Esi is mandatory, you can not avoid.

Re: ESI doubts
hello dear

in my view, you could exempt those employees only where the ESI dispencery is not available in the radius of 10 Km from the base station of that employee.

Re: ESI doubts
Somewhere I gathered,



" Plz check the sec.87,88 & 91A of ESI Act which deals with application for exemption from provisions of the Act.

However, to claim any exemption Company will have to satisfy the govt. that your company has arranged better medical facility/other associated welfare measures for its employees, which is more feasible & convenient to employees than ESI Corporation. "



So what has to be done to get to convince govt?

Re: ESI doubts
Hi

We dont have ESI facility in our company.As ESI authority people say our area of factory is outside the range ( as we dont have any hospital for around 12 kms from our factory)

Re: ESI doubts
Generally ESI does not cover establishments which are not in the "implemented area" i.e places where ESI facilities are not available nearby. It is also possible to seek exemption from the provisions of the ESI Act in case the organization is providing benefits which are superior to those being provided by ESI. However getting exemption is a very cumbersome process and takes a long time. You need to apply to the Labour Ministry with complete details of the organization, benefits being provided etc. The application is sent to the ESI HQs in New Delhi who consider the issue on case to case basis. Most of the requests are turned down and even where exemption is granted, it is generally for not more than two years initially.

Dear Mr...........

As per my knowledge about ESI those who are drwing less than 10,000/-salary they have to cover under esi but areas which not covered we need to take axcemption from the corporation.

If not ESI deduction and paying contribution is mandatory
