Dear BC Arya,
I have already stated that, from the above-cited provision, it is learned that those with 12 months' continuous service in the same establishment will receive the EDLI compensation. What will happen if the service is continuous but in different establishments? Will the EPFO deny that member's EDLI? Regardless of the provisions in the Acts, EPFO personnel will work in compliance with the instructions they have. If it adversely affects us, we can seek justice. Note that if the service is below 12 months, nowhere is it mentioned that the EDLI benefit will be denied.
In the case of Family pension, withdrawal benefit, etc., deviations from the act are evident. Concerning family pension, the Act specifies that to receive this pension, there should be a minimum contribution of one month. However, if there is one-day attendance after EPF registration, family pension will be granted. Regarding withdrawal benefit, the Act stipulates paying the benefit according to the last drawn salary. Nevertheless, EPFO pays the benefit based on the average of the last twelve months.
Dear Aryaji, I have no role in the implementation part. I simply illustrate the provisions of the Act based on the precedents and practices I have experienced, inquiring with the concerned officials in EPF, the class and guidance provided by both the Education Officers in the Regional Office, Workers Education Department, Kozhikode, and EPFO personnel, etc.
If you still have doubts, I am unable to assist further. Please try to contact the concerned RPFO.
With regards,
