Dear All,
I want to know that in my company, we recruit some workers on a basic salary of 7000 without PF. However, in a particular month, due to absenteeism, their basic salary becomes lower at 6500. Now, is PF applicable to them or not?

Dear Sharmaniranjak,
PF is not applicable to this case. If his basic is Rs. 7000, then as per the PF Act, this employee is exempted from PF whether he is present or absent.

Dear Sharma,
PF has to be deducted if the salary of the employee is less than 6500. If the company is giving 7000 as salary, then there is no need for PF deduction even if the amount becomes less than 6500 due to his absence.

Dear Mathew & Basima,
If an employer voluntarily covers PF, what is the gain for the employer, as he also has to contribute equally for PF? Yes, if the employee covers it voluntarily, he definitely has gains. But what about the employer? I have always had this question in my mind.

Dear Kumar,
That is why I was saying that it is for the employer to decide whether to apply PF even if the amount of salary is more than 6500, and the employee can't decide to voluntarily cover. The employer has to cover all employees voluntarily who are drawing more than 6500. In some MNCs, for the purpose of attracting employees, they voluntarily cover employees who draw more than 6500 as salary.

I want to know if our Head Office has 10-15 employees and the factory has 300 workers who are covered under PF with a PF code. Now, the questions are:
1) Is the Head Office eligible for PF even with 10-15 employees?
2) Do we need to apply for a new PF code, or can we use the same code even if the factory is established in another state?
Please suggest.
