Dear Friend,
The ESIC is applicable if you are doing any additional construction work on the premises of the factory. If your factory is newly set up or if an employee compensation policy is in place, for new construction, ESIC is not applicable. However, if construction activity is carried out in a factory where the workers working on the premises are covered under ESIC, then the said construction activity falls under the provisions of the ESIC Act.

Dear Friend,
I totally agree with you that the ESI Act is not applicable to the Construction Industry. How should compliance be ensured? Is it necessary to take out a Workmen's Compensation policy from any insurance company?

There is a notification no. 4/99 regarding the coverage of construction agencies/offices of builders under the ESI Act, 1948, which mentions that the ESI Act is not applicable to construction agencies. We engaged an agency for construction work. If the act is not applicable to them, then is our factory liable for ESI?
