Greetings to respected seniors,
I hope you will kindly provide me with information regarding ESIC. I am working as an HR executive in a service company. I would like to know whether it is possible to receive ESIC benefits from my organization even if they pay me more than 10,000.
I need this facility for my family's sake, so kindly inform me if I am eligible for this benefit.

I think, as per the act, you are not eligible for ESIC.
I would also like to know if there is a provision for voluntary membership. The reason it is denied is that the person is also eligible for payment of leave salary from ESIC, which the corporation wishes to cap.
Waiting for an expert opinion on this.

ESI Act covers an employee drawing wages up to Rs.15000/-p.m. Thus you are eligible, provided your comapny is covered by the ESI Act. B.Saikumar HR & Labour Law advisor Mumbai

Dear seniors,
Thank you so much for your kind information. I still have a small doubt, please clarify. My company provides staffing solutions, both permanent and contract, to our clients. They are going to provide me PF from this month, January. So, can I ask them to provide ESIC? If so, how can I proceed to ask them further? Is ESIC providing a company policy or a company wish?
Best regards,

Dear,
ESI provision is neither company policy nor company wish; it is a mandatory compliance requirement. If your gross salary is less than 15000/-, then you are eligible for ESI, and the company has no option but to pay ESI contributions.

Dear Sravani,
It is compulsory to pay ESI contribution if the Gross Salary is less than 15000 per month. The contribution by the employee is 1.75% of the Gross Salary, and the contribution by the employer is 4.75%.
If you need more clarifications, please contact Laxmi at 9866917232.
Thank you.

Dear Sravani,
Please check your salary slips for any deductions of ESIC from your salary. If there is a deduction, it means you are already covered and your contribution is being paid. Kindly request your company's HR to provide you with the ESIC temporary card. Take this card to the nearby ESIC office along with your family members who are covered under the scheme to get a permanent card issued. Once the permanent card is made, you will not need to apply for it again, even if you leave this company and join elsewhere. The same card will remain valid as long as you are eligible for ESIC coverage, which currently stands at Rs. 15,000, as rightly mentioned. There is a proposal pending with the government to increase this limit to Rs. 18,000, but as of now, it remains at Rs. 15,000.
I hope this information helps to resolve your query.

Dear Member,
As per the present ESI Law, if the gross salary is above 15,000, individuals are not eligible for ESI benefits. However, ESI is enhancing the gross up to 18,000, but this change will be applicable from May 2013.
This is for your information.
