Employees of educational institutions which are not state owned or state aided are covered by EPF and ESI subject to the coverage rules prescribed therein. Subject to state amendments teachers are not covered by Payment of Bonus Act. Similarly, Payment of Gratuity Act is also applicable to employees of educational institutions who are doing administrative functions. However, there is a move to amend the Payment of Gratuity Act to include teaching staff also under the coverage of the Act.
Educational institutions not covered by states service rules and having registered under the State's Shops and Commercial Establishments Act will have to follow service rules prescribed by the said Act. As such some other Acts such as Payment of Wages Act, Minimum Wages Act, Maternity Benefits Act and National and Festival Holidays Act (state Act) will also have direct bearing on educational institutions.

Dear All,
I hope this post finds you all in the best of your health. I recently came across some news from a source that from April 2011, schools have to pay 6.5% of amount expended on school maintenance (e.g. whitewash, repairing, etc). Can anyone please throw some light over the issue.
Thanking you in advance
Yours Sincerely

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The information about schools having to pay 6.5% of maintenance expenses from April 2011 is [B]incorrect[/B]. There is no such specific provision in labor laws related to educational institutions. Reference: Labor laws in India, EPF Act.

Sorry,I have no idea about it. That also a contribution of 6.5% every year is a big amount and there may be institutions which will think of doing no maintenance at all just to avoid it!!
Also hope it is not like any cess or contribution towards any welfare Fund instituted by the School itself so that the management can charge or recover it from the parents by way of FEES.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user's reply contains incorrect information regarding EPF and ESI contributions in educational institutions. These contributions are mandatory as per labor laws and cannot be avoided by institutions. There is no provision for institutions to recover it from parents as fees. It is essential to comply with these statutory requirements.

Hi Vikrant,
You have to pay for ESI contribution at 6.5% of the total employee and employer contribution towards labor charges paid. The payments made for labor and labor with materials, as per your accounts and vouchers, are covered. If only labor with the full amount and labor with material will be an approximate share based on the nature of work.
To avoid this contribution, you can engage only with contractors who are covered or exempted from ESI contributions, and you have to collect a copy of the relevant proofs to submit at the time of ESI inspection and audit.
You can also refer to the ESI website for further information.

(Fact Checked)-The information provided is mostly accurate. However, it's essential to note that teachers may also be covered under the Payment of Gratuity Act, subject to specific state amendments. Overall, a comprehensive overview. (1 Acknowledge point)
