Hi,
The rise in the bar from 10k to 15k is not a good idea. The Government wants to fill their pockets with OUR hard-earned money. Initially, it was 7.5k, then 10k, and now 15k. This is real bad news for the Employers as an annual medi-claim policy will be much cheaper than ESIC. The Government hospitals are pathetic, and anyone and everyone is treated like dirt there. I think a collective move needs to be taken against this rather than sending individual mails or letters.
We need to revolt against this and also fight for an Exemption Right if the employee doesn't want the ESIC deduction (like in PF).

Dear Madhura,
Thank you for raising this issue. I agree with Riya, but we need to improve our systems. The facilities provided in various hospitals and dispensaries should be adequate. What can be done? Even when the limit was Rs. 10,000, some of us were paying ESI contributions. What about them? Either there should be ESI with improved systems or no ESI for all employees. We should collectively send a mail to Mr. Xaviour.

Before enhancing the limit the govt must think that whether they can able to give the complete service to current persons already covered in the scheme

Definitely, I do agree that ESIC is not that much beneficial to the employees. Altogether, there is a loss for the Employer & Employee. If all the HR personnel come together and approach the ESIC authority, then definitely we will be able to get a solution to this. Request you to please come together. Seniors, please help me, is it right?
