Hi members
As per ESI Act, the salary for exemption is above Rs.10,000/- per month which we all know. In case an specalised worker is engaged for daily wage and his daily wage is Rs.390/-, is he coverable under the act. The payment will be calculated on a monthly basis and paid only at the end of the month. Had the employee worked on all days (i.e) in a month 26 days his salary will be above the coverage limit. Is he coverable under the act? In case you find any rulings plz share.

Dear Mr.Malik
Why I am so particular is that, an ESI inspector had advised that exemption of an employee under ESI Act cannot be considered for a daily wager.Also, when I browsed thro the act books & journals nowhere I found the daily wage amount.It speaks only about the monthly factor.Kindly help me sort out this issue.
