Hi,

I wanted to know the procedure of maternity benefits for individuals who fall under ESI and the documents that need to be submitted. What is the eligibility criteria?

Looking forward to an early reply.

Thanks & Regards,

Dear Jayachandra,

An insured woman has to provide notice of pregnancy before confinement using Form 17.

To claim maternity benefits, a certificate of expected confinement in Form 18 must be submitted to the appropriate office not earlier than 15 days before the date of confinement.

A claim for maternity benefit in Form 19 must state the date on which she ceased or will cease to work for remuneration and, within thirty days of the date on which her confinement takes place, a certificate of confinement in Form 18 must be provided in accordance with these regulations. (Within 30 days in case of miscarriage in Form 18 and Form 19.)

In the event of a claim for maternity benefit after the death of an insured woman leaving behind a child: Form 20; within 30 days of the death of the insured woman with a death certificate in Form 21.

For a claim for maternity benefit in case of sickness arising from pregnancy, Form No.9 along with a medical certificate in Form 7 or 8 should be submitted.

Maternity benefit is paid from the date it is claimed, provided that such date does not precede the expected date of confinement by more than 42 days and no work is done by the insured woman for remuneration.

Dear All,

In this context of ESIC wages, I have a confusion. Can someone clarify the difference between TRAVELLING ALLOWANCE and CONVEYANCE/CONVEYANCE ALLOWANCE? Can these terms be used interchangeably? What will be the deduction status in case of these components?

Respected Sir,

Thank you for the elaborated discussion. In this regard, I have a doubt. The contractor who works himself along with other employees deployed by him and receives remuneration for the work done by him is also covered under the Act as per the amended provisions in the year 1989. However, if the contractor is independently covered under the Act under sec 1(5), then he is not covered even if he earns remuneration below the ceiling limit.

With regards,

Dear CRK,

I have a query regarding ESIC benefits. If an employee contributes towards ESIC until 31st Oct 10 and after that, he/she leaves the services, how long can he/she avail ESIC benefits under the scheme?
