Hi friends,
ESI does not apply to notional extension, which refers to the journey from home to the workplace and back. ESI is applicable to any accident that occurs during employment, arising out of the employment, or while carrying out assigned duties.
If a vehicle carrying employees from their homes to the workplace meets with an accident, the question arises whether ESI is applicable in such a situation. The answer is NO. The reason being notional extension is not covered under ESI. For reference, please see the judgments from Andhra Pradesh and the Supreme Court.

Hi,
If the employee was on duty during the time of the accident, he must benefit from the ESIC. It should be reported to the ESIC local office within 24 hours by filing Form 12 (in triplicate), duly attested by the employer, enclosing all the facts related to the accident. For example, enclose the attendance sheet showing the employee was on duty, a xerox copy of the OD slip/OD register attested by a competent authority showing that at the time of the accident, the employee was on duty. Also, enclose a copy of the police report to strengthen the case. Additionally, mention the same in Form 11 (accident register), which may be checked by ESIC authorities during report submission. The entire process should be completed within 24 hours. If any week off/holidays fall within this period, it should be reported to the ESIC dispensary allocated to the IP in the form of an application detailing all the facts. Acknowledge the same.
Lastly, the salary of the IP must be Rs. 10,000/- (per month) or above; otherwise, no benefits will be provided to employees.
Thanks and regards,

Dear Tusar Sir,
You mentioned that the particular person will not be eligible to receive any benefits from the ESIC Department. However, he or she can still receive free-of-cost treatment from an ESIC doctor if they are already registered with one. I would like to understand the procedure for registering with an ESIC doctor.

Hi Shekhar,
That is not a big process. Employees need to bring the TIC or PIC (Temporary or Permanent Insurance Card) along with Form 37 and family members' photo. It should be submitted to the regional ESIC doctor. Once he/she and their family members register, then afterward, they are eligible to get the free benefits from the ESIC doctor.

Dear Srinivas,
In India, many places are similar, where ESIC is not applicable because those places do not have ESIC facilities, and there is no ability to provide medical facilities through ESIC. Therefore, ESIC has designated those places as non-ESIC areas.
In that case, employees in those areas must be registered under the "Workman Compensation policy," meaning the employer has to provide any other medical facilities to them.
